Abstract
⺠M. tuberculosis fumarase complexes with l-malate, meso-tartrate or fumarate. ⺠First reported crystal structure of a fumarase in complex with fumarate. ⺠Substrate binding leads to active site closure, sequestering from solvent. ⺠Experimental evidence suggests His187 and Ser318 as the acid-base catalysts.
