Probing the mechanism of dihydrodipicolinate synthase
Dihydrodipicolinate synthase (DHDPS, E.C. 4.2.1.52) is the enzyme that catalyses the first committed step in the lysine biosynthetic pathway, which involves the condensation reaction between (S)-aspartate β-semialdehyde ((S)-ASA) and pyruvate via a ping-pong mechanism, and is feedback inhibited by l...
