Abstract

A classic example of enzyme stereospecificity is the title reaction involving the enantioselective conversion of fluoroacetyl-CoA. High-level modeling of the enzyme reaction shows that preferential formation of an E-enolate explains the experimentally observed specificity. The results indicate that selectivity is primarily a result of the inherent energy difference between the E- and Z-enolates of fluoroacetyl-CoA.
