Proposed Catalytic mechanism of ScGCL. The proposed catalytic mechanism depicted is based on available biochemical and structural data for ScGCL as discussed in the text. Arg472 of ScGCL, the residue proposed to stabilize the anionic transition state, is also shown. Additional biochemical and kinetic studies will be required to validate the mechanism, particularly with regard to activation of the nucleophilic cysteine.
