  • PubMed Abstract: 

    Turn to switch: A mutant of phenylalanine aminomutase was engineered that can catalyze the regioselective amination of cinnamate derivatives (see scheme, red) to, for example, β-amino acids. This regioselectivity, along with the X-ray crystal structures, suggests two distinct carboxylate binding modes differentiated by C(β)-C(ipso) bond rotation, which determines if β- (see scheme) or α-addition takes place.
