摘要: Synthesis of [3′-2H]-labeled 5′-methylthioadenosine (MTA) derivatives permitted measurement the [3′-2H] KIE reaction catalyzed by Streptococcus pneumoniae methylthioadenosine nucleosidase (spMTAN). The key revealed partial 3′-OH polarization and H3′-endo→exo ribosyl configuration at spMTAN transition state. A new understanding state stabilization spMTAN-catalyzed hydrolysis is uncovered in structural features
