Enzymatic C4‐Epimerization of UDP‐Glucuronic Acid: Precisely Steered Rotation of a Transient 4‐Keto Intermediate for an Inverted Reaction without Decarboxylation

UDP‐glucuronic acid (UDP‐GlcA) 4‐epimerase illustrates an important problem regarding enzyme catalysis: balancing conformational flexibility with precise positioning. The enzyme coordinates the C4‐oxidation of the substrate by NAD(+) and rotation of a decarboxylation‐prone β‐keto acid intermediate i...
