Solution structure and biochemical characterization of a spare part protein that restores activity to an oxygen-damaged glycyl radical enzyme

Abstract: Glycyl radical enzymes (GREs) utilize a glycyl radical cofactor to carry out a diverse array of chemically challenging enzymatic reactions in anaerobic bacteria. Although the glycyl radical is a powerful catalyst, it is also oxygen sensitive such that oxygen exposure causes cleavage of the...
