Accepted name: |
4-coumaroyl-homoserine lactone synthase |
Reaction: |
4-coumaroyl-CoA + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = CoA + S-methyl-5′-thioadenosine + N-(4-coumaroyl)-L-homoserine lactone |
Glossary: |
S-methyl-5′-thioadenosine = 5′-deoxy-5′-(methylsulfanyl)adenosine |
Other name(s): |
p-coumaryl-homoserine lactone synthase; RpaI |
Systematic name: |
4-coumaroyl-CoA:S-adenosyl-L-methionine trans-4-coumaroyltranserase (lactone-forming, methylthioadenosine-releasing) |
Comments: |
The enzyme is found in the bacterium Rhodopseudomonas palustris, which produces N-(4-coumaroyl)-L-homoserine lactone as a quorum-sensing signal. |
