Congratulations to former student Eli and the team on their new paper in Nature Chemical Biology! Here they show that the difference in radical rebound of FeII/aKG halogenases is uniquely controlled by the switching of the metal ligand bond axes! Take a look: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Dynamic metal coordination controls chemoselectivity in a radical halogenase - Nature Chemical Biology
Radical FeII/α-ketoglutarate-dependent halogenases are powerful biocatalysts for C–H functionalization. Here, the authors reveal the mechanistic basis for chemoselectivity in a lysine halogenase.
