Abstract: Rieske oxygenases perform precise C–H bond functionalization reactions in anabolic and catabolic pathways. These reactions are typically characterized as monooxygenation or dioxygenation reactions, but other divergent reactions are also catalyzed by Rieske oxygenases. Chlorophyll(ide) a… read more here.

Abstract: Rieske oxygenases exploit the reactivity of iron to perform chemically challenging C–H bond functionalization reactions. Thus far, only a handful of Rieske oxygenases have been structurally characterized and remarkably little information exists regarding how these… read more here.
