Bong Y, Song S, Nazor J, Vogel M, Widegren M, Smith D, et al.
J Org Chem . 2018 Jun; 83(14):7453-7458. PMID: 29932340
A wild-type Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase was engineered to overcome numerous liabilities in order to mediate a commercial oxidation of pyrmetazole to esomeprazole, using air as the terminal oxidant in an almost...

Jensen K, Bell 3rd C, Clay M, Solomon E
J Am Chem Soc . 2009 Aug; 131(34):12155-71. PMID: 19663382
We have performed a systematic study of chemically possible peroxo-type intermediates occurring in the non-heme di-iron enzyme class Ia ribonucleotide reductase, using spectroscopically calibrated computational chemistry. Density functional computations of...

Fox R, Clay M
Trends Biotechnol . 2009 Feb; 27(3):137-40. PMID: 19193465
Recent attention has been paid to the inadequacy of using the ratio Vmax/KM as a measure of enzyme performance, particularly in the context of industrial biocatalysis. This can lead to...

Mitic N, Clay M, Saleh L, Bollinger Jr J, Solomon E
J Am Chem Soc . 2007 Jul; 129(29):9049-65. PMID: 17602477
Spectroscopic and electronic structure studies of the class I Escherichia coli ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) intermediate X and three computationally derived model complexes are presented, compared, and evaluated to determine the...

Yang T, McNaughton R, Clay M, Jenney Jr F, Krishnan R, Kurtz Jr D, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2006 Dec; 128(51):16566-78. PMID: 17177406
Superoxide reductase (SOR) and P450 enzymes contain similar [Fe(N)4(SCys)] active sites and, although they catalyze very different reactions, are proposed to involve analogous low-spin (hydro)peroxo-Fe(III) intermediates in their respective mechanisms...

Decker A, Clay M, Solomon E
J Inorg Biochem . 2006 Mar; 100(4):697-706. PMID: 16510189
High-valent iron-oxo intermediates are known or believed to be key oxidizing species in the catalytic mechanisms of many mononuclear and binuclear non-heme iron enzymes. So far only limited experimental data...

Clay M, Yang T, Jenney Jr F, Kung I, Cosper C, Krishnan R, et al.
Biochemistry . 2006 Jan; 45(2):427-38. PMID: 16401073
We have added cyanide to oxidized 1Fe and 2Fe superoxide reductase (SOR) as a surrogate for the putative ferric-(hydro)peroxo intermediate in the reaction of the enzymes with superoxide and have...

Duin E, Signor L, Piskorski R, Mahlert F, Clay M, Goenrich M, et al.
J Biol Inorg Chem . 2004 May; 9(5):563-76. PMID: 15160314
Methyl-coenzyme M reductase (MCR) catalyzes the methane-forming step in methanogenic archaea. It contains the nickel porphinoid F(430), a prosthetic group that has been proposed to be directly involved in the...

J Biol Inorg Chem . 2003 May; 8(6):671-82. PMID: 12764688
The electronic and vibrational properties of the [Fe(His)(4)(Cys)] site (Center II) responsible for catalysis of superoxide reduction in the two-iron superoxide reductase (2Fe-SOR) from Desulfovibrio vulgaris have been investigated using...
