Mechanism of the Enzymatic Synthesis of 4-(Hydroxymethyl)-2- furancarboxaldehyde-phosphate (4-HFC-P) from Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate Catalyzed by 4-HFC-P Synthase.

Abstract excerpt

A single enzyme, 4-(hydroxymethyl)-2-furancarboxaldehyde-phosphate synthase (MfnB), from the methanogen Methanocaldococcus jannaschii catalyzed at least 10 separate chemical reactions in converting two molecules of glyceraldehyde-3-P (GA-3-P) to 4-(hydroxymethyl)-2-furancarboxaldehyde-P (4-HFC-P)...
