All electron quantum chemical calculation of the entire enzyme system confirms a collective catalytic device in the chorismate mutase reaction
Article Abstract:
The reaction profile of Claisen rearrangement of chorismate mutase is analyzed by all electron quantum chemical calculations using the fragment molecular orbital (FMo) method. The study reveals that the hydrogen bonds connecting the substrates as well as the positive charge on one of the substrates highly affect the electrostatic stabilization.

A transition path sampling study of the reaction catalyzed by the enzyme chorismate mutase
Article Abstract:
The transition path sampling method developed by Chandler and co-workers is applied to study the steps involved in the chorismate-mutase-catalyzed conversion of chorismate into prephenate. Various transition state ligand of the enzyme are e recognized in this method.
