Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
benzylsuccinate = toluene + fumarate substrate binding stabilizing the active site and reaction mechanism via glycyl radical, detailed overview. Syn addition of toluene to fumaric acid and facilitation of a mechanism that retains the hydrogen abstracted from the methyl group of toluene within the succinyl moiety. The stability of substrates at the active site and the occurrence of feasible radical transfer distances between the thiyl radical, substrates, and the active site glycine indicate a substrate-assisted radical transfer pathway governing fumarate addition Thauera sp.
