40. app = 52%) after 6 h. This enzyme was missed in our initial activity screen because it reacted only slowly with the N-chloroacetyl derivative 1c.
41. The solubility of both 5h and 6h in 10% MeCN/buffer was <5 mM. Organic cosolvents (1,4-dioxane, EtOH, DMSO) or additives (10 mM guanidium chloride) did not significantly improve solubility. Performing the reaction experiment at 50 °C or using a biphasic reaction system with tert-butylmethyl ether also did not increase conversion. Using MeCN or 1.4-dioxane at higher concentrations (20-90%) improved substrate solubility, but did not increase conversion.

54. Removal of a hydrogen bond donor or acceptor in an enzyme active site weakens binding by 0.5-1.5 kcal/mol.37 Although the hydrogen bond inventory is zero (i.e., the number of hydrogen bonds is the same for both the free enzyme and the enzyme-substrate complex), hydrogen bonds between an enzyme and substrate increase the entropy due to the release of bound water molecules.
55. M values for 1h and 1c than for 1a, but low solubility of these substrates (<5 mM) prevented us from testing this prediction.
