Expanding the repertoire of enzymatic C-C bond formation with one-carbon units

C-C bonds are the basis for virtually all organic molecules on Earth. In nature, hundreds of different enzymes catalyze reactions in which C-C bonds are formed. A major task of these enzymes is the fixation of carbon, i.e. a C-C bond formation with at least one-carbon (C1) molecule. Most of these en...
