Mechanistic evidence for a front-side, SNi-type reaction in a retaining glycosyltransferase

A previously determined crystal structure of the ternary complex of trehalose-6-phosphate synthase identified a putative transition state-like arrangement based on validoxylamine A 6?-O-phosphate and uridine diphosphate in the active site. Here linear free energy relationships confirm that these inh...
