Abstract
We report computationally-guided protein engineering of monomeric streptavidin Rh(iii) artificial metalloenzyme to enhance catalysis of the enantioselective coupling of acrylamide hydroxamate esters and styrenes. Increased TON correlates with calculated distances between the Rh(iii) metal and surrounding residues, underscoring an artificial metalloenzyme's propensity for additional control in metal-catalyzed transformations by through-space interactions.
