Stereochemical course of hydrogen transfer catalysed by the enoyl reductase enzyme of the yeast fatty acid synthetase

Abstract

Reduction of the trans-2-enoyl intermediate (1) to give the saturated alkyl thioester (2) in fatty acid biosynthesis occurs by means of an anti-addition of hydrogen to the pro-2S and pro-3S position of the carbons forming the double bond.
