The enzymaticmechanism begins with the binding of ATP and hydroxycinnamate substrates. The binding results in 4CL1 adopting the catalytic conformation for the adenylate-forming partial reaction, in which the side chain of Lys-523 interacts with and directs the carboxylate group of the bound  hydroxycinnamates  for  the  nucleophilic  attack  of  the α-phosphate  of  ATP,  resulting  in  an  AMP-hydroxycinnamate conjugate and a PPi molecule. The release of PPi then propels 4CL1  to  the  catalytic  conformation  of  the  thioester-forming partial reaction.  In this conformation,  the side chain of His-234 swings aside to allow access of CoA to the AMP-hydroxycinnamate conjugate. The AMP-hydroxycinnamate conjugate and CoA are then catalyzed by side chains of Lys-438 and Gln-443 to form the final thioester product. The C-domain rotates again to expose the substrate binding site, and the thioester and AMP are released[3].
