title: Can the peroxosuccinate complex in the catalytic cycle of taurine/alpha-ketoglutarate dioxygenase (TauD) act as an alternative oxidant?
abstract: Density functional theoretical studies on the catalytic properties of the peroxosuccinate intermediate in the catalytic cycle of taurine/alpha-ketoglutarate dioxygenase suggest that it cannot act as a second oxidant.
