A Theoretical Study of the Benzoylformate Decarboxylase Reaction Mechanism

Density functional theory calculations are used to investigate the detailed reaction mechanism of benzoylformate decarboxylase, a thiamin diphosphate (ThDP)-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the nonoxidative decarboxylation of benzoylformate yielding benzaldehyde and carbon dioxide. A large model of t...
