7. (a) The transition state for this reaction was characterized by ab initio calculations at the HF/6-31G level with Gaussian 98 (ref 7b). The angle in the TS is 120° as per ab initio calculations. The van der Waals radius used in defining the NAC geometry was taken from ref 7c.

10. (a) Molecular dynamics (MD) studies were performed on the E-S complex at 298 and 385 K starting with the X-ray crystal structure of E-IGP complex solved at 2 Å (PDB code: 1A53.pdb). The E-S complexes were solvated in the TIP3P water box. The periodic boundary conditions and partial mesh Ewald treatment for electrostatics were applied. The CHARMM force field (ref 8b) and CHARMM v27 program were used. The average distance is calculated from the last 1300 ps. The parameters for partial atomic charges were derived from ab initio calculations at the MP2/6-311+G(2d,p) level of theory using the Gaussian 98 program (ref 7b).
