Unlocking the evolutionary mechanism of Intermolecular Diels-Alderases from Mulberry Trees
In organic synthesis, the Diels-Alder reaction is pivotal. Seeking eco-friendly alternatives, researchers explore natural Diels-Alderases, enzymes that catalyze this reaction. Xiaoguang Lei's lab uncovers evolutionary mechanisms in plant-derived Diels-Alderases, especially from mulberry trees.
