Triosephosphate isomerase: the perfect enzyme, but how does it work?

Insights are offered on the study by Kelpšas et al. [ IUCrJ (2021). 8, 633–643], who have combined neutron and X-ray crystallography then QM (quantum mechanics) calculations on triosephosphate isomerase (TIM). The authors dissect three possible enzyme mechanisms of TIM that have arisen in the decade...
