Mechanism-Based Studies of the Active Site-Directed Inhibition and Activation of Enzyme Transketolase [PDF]
Derivatives of phenyl-keto butenoic acids have been reported to be inhibitors of pyruvate decarboxylase, (PDC). The inhibition of transketolase, a thiamine requiring enzyme such as PDF, by meta nitrophenyl derivative of 2-oxo-3-butenoic acid (MNPB) is ...

Biosynthesis of the benzylpyrrolidine precursor in anisomycin by a unique ThDP-dependent enzyme
Anisomycin (compound 1), a multifunctional pyrrolidine antibiotic, primarily inhibits protein biosynthesis by binding to the ribosome. Upon binding to the ribosome, the para-phenol moiety of anisomycin inserts completely into the hydrophobic crevice of ...

Biophysical and structural studies on transketolases
Understanding the mechanism and structure of transketolase is valuable across a range of disciplines, including enzymology, synthetic biology, drug development, and biocatalysis. Beyond offering insights into enzyme catalysis and thiamin-dependent chemistry, this knowledge enables the rational design of transketolase variants with altered substrate ...
