Catalytic triad (Evolution 🧬)

A catalytic triad is a set of three coordinated amino acid residues that can be found in the active site of some enzymes. Catalytic triads are most commonly found in hydrolase and transferase enzymes. An acid-base-nucleophile triad is a common motif for generating a nucleophilic residue for covalent catalysis. The residues form a charge-relay network to polar...

Plausibility thanks to our making a giant mess with fossil fuels. Now we're skilled with #catalysis.

"The goal of net-zero or even carbon-negative production of chemicals and molecular energy carriers can only be achieved if the carbon is not released as waste that needs to be mitigated, but we strive for the vision of a closed anthropogenic carbon cycle. In this context, the use of CO2 and H2 as building blocks for new synthetic pathways is one of the key components."
