Accepted name: |
3′-dehydrocarminate deglycosidase |
Reaction: |
3′-dehydrocarminate = 1,5-anhydro-D-erythro-hex-1-en-3-ulose + kermesate |
Glossary: |
carminate = 7-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-3,5,6,8-tetrahydroxy-1-methyl-9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracene-2-carboxylate
kermesate = 3,5,6,8-tetrahydroxy-1-methyl-9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracene-2-carboxylate
1,5-anhydro-D-erythro-hex-1-en-3-ulose = (2R,3R)-3,5-dihydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)-2,3-dihydropyran-4-one |
Other name(s): |
carBC (gene names) |
Systematic name: |
3′-dehydrocarminate lyase (kermesate-forming) |
Comments: |
Requires Mg2+. This enzyme, isolated from the bacterium Microbacterium 5-2b, participates in a carminate degradation pathway. Following the activity of EC 1.1.3.50, C-glycoside oxidase, it cleaves the C—C bond in 3′-dehydrocarminate. The sugar moiety is released lacking a hydroxyl at position 1, and containing a double bond between C-1 and C-2. The enzyme shows weak activity with other 3′-dehydro-C-glucosides. |
