Structural Basis for the Catalytic Mechanism of Ethylenediamine‑N,N′‑disuccinic Acid Lyase, a Carbon–Nitrogen Bond-Forming Enzyme with a Broad Substrate Scope

The natural aminocarboxylic acid product ethylenediamine-N,N′-disuccinic acid [(S,S)-EDDS] is able to form a stable complex with metal ions, making it an attractive biodegradable alternative for the synthetic metal chelator ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), which is currently used on a large s...
