  • Abstract
    A human enzyme variant, PON1-G3C9, accidentally catalyzes the hydrolysis of organophosphorus chemical weapons. In this issue of Chemistry & Biology, Goldsmith and coworkers describe a new PON1 variant with improved hydrolysis by several hundred fold; enough that it may protect animals from a toxic dose.
