| Accepted name: |
pyrogallol hydroxytransferase |
| Reaction: |
1,2,3,5-tetrahydroxybenzene + 1,2,3-trihydroxybenzene = 1,3,5-trihydroxybenzene + 1,2,3,5-tetrahydroxybenzene |
| Other name(s): |
1,2,3,5-tetrahydroxybenzene hydroxyltransferase; 1,2,3,5-tetrahydroxybenzene:pyrogallol transhydroxylase; 1,2,3,5-tetrahydroxybenzene-pyrogallol hydroxyltransferase (transhydroxylase); pyrogallol hydroxyltransferase; 1,2,3,5-tetrahydroxybenzene:1,2,3-trihydroxybenzene hydroxyltransferase |
| Systematic name: |
1,2,3,5-tetrahydroxybenzene:1,2,3-trihydroxybenzene hydroxytransferase |
| Comments: |
1,2,3,5-Tetrahydroxybenzene acts as a co-substrate for the conversion of pyrogallol into phloroglucinol, and for a number of similar isomerizations. The enzyme is provisionally listed here, but might be considered as the basis for a new class in the transferases, analogous to the aminotransferases. |
