Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In general physical insight based on the best experimental method is not enough. Thus, we performed theoretical calculations to help better understanding of catalytic systems. In our research we discuss the catalytic mechanism for enzymatic reactions from a theoretical viewpoint. Our computational study suggests the metallic active sight of enzymatic reactions has a interesting electronic structure to activate inert substrates. We determine possible reaction pathway that involves transition states and intermediate.
