Crystallization (Comment) Organism
quantum chemical calculation of reaction mechanism. Carbon dioxide is formed from formate, which is present as a cofactor. The formate first forms a formyl radical. The next step, where the formyl radical protonates the 3'-keto group of the substrate, is rate limiting with a calculated total barrier of 19.9 kcal/mol, in reasonable agreement with the experimental rate-limiting barrier of 17 kcal/mol. Zero-point and entropy effects are quite significant in lowering the barrier Escherichia coli
