Structures of LnmK, a Bifunctional Acyltransferase/Decarboxylase, with Substrate Analogues Reveal the Basis for Selectivity and Stereospecificity

Lee M. Stunkard et al.

Summary: The study reveals that LnmK enzyme uses substrate-assisted catalysis to carry out decarboxylation and acyl transfer reactions, providing support for the biosynthesis of polyketides. The molecular structures of substrate analogues bound to LnmK help in understanding substrate specificity, stereospecificity, and catalytic mechanism, showcasing the potential of these analogues in studying enzymes with complex structure-function relationships.

Branched-chain amino acid metabolism controls membrane phospholipid structure in Staphylococcus aureus

Matthew W. Frank et al.

Summary: Branched-chain amino acids, particularly isoleucine, play a crucial role in regulating virulence in Staphylococcus aureus by being converted to precursor molecules for fatty acid synthesis. The selectivity of how the bacterium metabolizes isoleucine influences the composition of membrane phospholipids, demonstrating the importance of isoleucine metabolism in controlling membrane structure.
