Abstract: The perhydrolysis reaction in hydrolases is an important example of catalytic promiscuity and has many potential industrial applications. The mechanisms of perhydrolase activity of a subtilisin Carlsberg mutant and of an aryl-esterase mutant have been investigated using classical molecular dynamics simulations of the second tetrahedral intermediate (TI) state. The simulations demonstrated that hydrogen bonding between the second TI of the perhydrolysis reaction is possible in the mutants but not wild type. The stabilization by hydrogen bonds wa...

Topic-specific impact indicators

Popularity:
This indicator reflects the "current" impact/attention (the "hype") of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network.
Influence:
This indicator reflects the overall/total impact of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network (diachronically).
Citation Count:
This is an alternative to the "Influence" indicator, which also reflects the overall/total impact of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network (diachronically).
Impulse:
This indicator reflects the initial momentum of an article directly after its publication, based on the underlying citation network.
