3.1.1.92

Accepted name:

4-sulfomuconolactone hydrolase

Reaction:

4-sulfomuconolactone + H₂O = maleylacetate + sulfite

Glossary:

4-sulfomuconolactone = 4-carboxymethylen-4-sulfobut-2-en-olide = 2-(5-oxo-2-sulfo-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-yl)acetic acid
maleylacetate = (2Z)-4-oxohex-2-enedioate

Systematic name:

4-sulfomuconolactone sulfohydrolase

Comments:

The enzyme was isolated from the bacteria Hydrogenophaga intermedia and Agrobacterium radiobacter S2. It catalyses a step in the degradation of 4-sulfocatechol.
