Abstract

Enzyme mechanisms: Using ab initio methods and natural bond orbital analysis, negative hyperconjugation is shown to govern L-lactate oxidation chemistry and may help to determine its enzymatic dehydrogenation mechanism. The picture shows the negative hyperconjugation interaction between the lone pair on the oxygen atom and the *(CH) orbital.
