Studies using alternate substrates, inhibitor product mimics and new d
erivatives of 4,5-dideoxy-shikimate-3-phosphate (ddS3P) are reported w
hich indicate that the 3-phosphate group contributes significantly to
substrate and inhibitor recognition at the shikimate 3-phosphate (S3P)
site and that 3-malonate ethers will function as suitable 3-phosphate
replacements for substrate and inhibitor binding to the S3P site of t
his enzyme.
