You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedOrotidine-5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (ODCase) has evolved to catalyze a decarboxylation reaction, most probably via a carbanion species at the C6 position of orotidine-5'-monophosphate. We reveal an unusual biochemical pathway of conversion of 6-cyano-uridine-5'-monophosphate by ODCase to barbiturate-5'-monophosphate via perhaps an electrophilic center at the C6 position, leading to inhibition. This potential of ODCase is very useful in the design of novel inhibitors. An unprecedented twist to ODCase catalytic activity.,Fujihashi M, Bello AM, Poduch E, Wei L, Annedi SC, Pai EF, Kotra LP J Am Chem Soc. 2005 Nov 2;127(43):15048-50.
