Structural insights into the catalytic mechanism of the microcystin tailoring enzyme McyI

Abstract The most common cyanotoxin microcystin is a cyclic heptapeptide produced by non-ribosomal peptide-polyketide synthetases and tailoring enzymes. The tailoring enzyme McyI, a 2-hydroxyacid dehydrogenase, converts (3-methyl)malate into (3-methyl)oxaloacetate to produce the non-proteinogenic am...
