Mechanistic studies of an unprecedented enzyme-catalysed 1,2-phosphono-migration reaction

(S)-2-hydroxypropylphosphonate ((S)-2-HPP) epoxidase (HppE) is a mononuclear non-haem-iron-dependent enzyme1, 2, 3 responsible for the final step in the biosynthesis of the clinically useful antibiotic fosfomycin4. Enzymes of this class typically catalyse oxygenation reactions that proceed via the f...
