Systematic name: |
2-methylpropanoyl-CoA CoA-carbonylmutase |
Comments: |
This bacterial enzyme utilizes 5′-deoxyadenosylcobalamin as a cofactor. Following substrate binding, the enzyme catalyses the homolytic cleavage of the cobalt-carbon bond of AdoCbl, yielding cob(II)alamin and a 5′-deoxyadenosyl radical, which initiates the the carbon skeleton rearrangement reaction by hydrogen atom abstraction from the substrate. At the end of each catalytic cycle the 5′-deoxyadenosyl radical and cob(II)alamin recombine, regenerating the resting form of the cofactor. The enzyme is prone to inactivation resulting from occassional loss of the 5′-deoxyadenosyl molecule. Inactivated enzymes are repaired by the action of EC 2.5.1.17, cob(I)yrinic acid a,c-diamide adenosyltransferase, and a G-protein chaperone, which restore cob(II)alamin (which is first reduced to cob(I)alamin by an unidentified reductase) to 5′-deoxyadenosylcobalamin and load it back on the mutase. Some mutases are fused with their G-protein chaperone. These enzyme can also catalyse the interconversion of isovaleryl-CoA with pivalyl-CoA. |

Accepted name: |
5-(carboxyamino)imidazole ribonucleotide mutase |
Reaction: |
5-carboxyamino-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole = 5-amino-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxylate |
|

Systematic name: |
5-carboxyamino-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole carboxymutase |
Comments: |
In eubacteria, fungi and plants, this enzyme, along with EC 6.3.4.18, 5-(carboxyamino)imidazole ribonucleotide synthase, is required to carry out the single reaction catalysed by EC 4.1.1.21, phosphoribosylaminoimidazole carboxylase, in vertebrates [6]. In the absence of EC 6.3.2.6, phosphoribosylaminoimidazolesuccinocarboxamide synthase, the reaction is reversible [3]. The substrate is readily converted into 5-amino-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole by non-enzymic decarboxylation [3]. |

Accepted name: |
achilleol B synthase |
Reaction: |
(3S)-2,3-epoxy-2,3-dihydrosqualene = achilleol B |
Systematic name: |
(3S)-2,3-epoxy-2,3-dihydrosqualene mutase (cyclizing, achilleol-B-forming) |
Comments: |
Achilleol B is probably formed by cleavage of the 8-14 and 9-10 bonds of (3S)-2,3-epoxy-2,3-dihydrosqualene as part of the cyclization reaction, after formation of the oleanane skeleton. |
