A recently reported mutase may generate an intermediate having a free radical. If you studied this reaction, what evidence would you look for in the mechanism that would be characteristic of other mutase reactions?

homolytic cleavage of a covalent bond.

Explanation:

Homolytic cleavage: In chemistry, the term "homolytic cleavage" is described as a process that involves breaking of a particular covalent bond in a way that every fragment tends to get "one" shared electrons and it often produces or gives rise to free radicals. It is also referred to as "homolysis" or "homolytic bond cleavage".

In the question above, the given statement represents "homolytic cleavage of a covalent bond".
