qp.structure.convert_nhie_oxo.convert_akg_to_sin(atoms)[source]

Convert alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG) to succinate (SIN).

Removes the C1 carbonyl oxygens and converts C1 to an oxo group, simulating the decarboxylation that occurs during NHIE catalysis. Atoms are modified in place; deleted atoms have record = 'DELETE'.

Parameters:

atoms (list of dict) – Atom records from read_pdb() (modified in place).
