?
(7,8-dihydropterin-6-yl)methyl diphosphate + 4-aminobenzoate mechanistic proposals for dihydropteroate synthase have been systematically investigated using a hybrid QM/MM method. A reaction mechanism is proposed that follows an SN1 process with the rate determining step being C-O bond breaking to give a carbocation intermediate Yersinia pestis diphosphate + 7,8-dihydropteroate
