Enzymatic reaction mechanism of cis-aconitate decarboxylase based on the crystal structure of IRG1 from Bacillus subtilis
Abstract Itaconate, which is formed by decarboxylation of cis-aconitate—an intermediate metabolite in the tricarboxylic acid cycle—has been used as a building block in polymer synthesis and is an important chemical in several biomedical and industrial applications. Itaconate is an immunometabolite w...
