EC 4.2.99.22     
Accepted name: tuliposide A-converting enzyme
Reaction: 6-tuliposide A = tulipalin A + D-glucose
Glossary: 6-tuliposide A = 6-O-(4-hydroxy-2-methylenebutanoyl)-D-glucose
tulipalin A = 2-methylenebutanolactone
Other name(s): tuliposide-converting enzyme; 6-O-(4′-hydroxy-2′-methylenebutyryl)-D-glucose acyltransferase (lactone-forming); TCA; TCEA
Systematic name: 6-tuliposide A D-glucose-lyase (tulipalin-A-forming)
Comments: Isolated from the plant Tulipa gesneriana (tulip). The reaction is an intramolecular transesterification producing the lactone. The enzyme also has a weak activity with 6-tuliposide B and 6-O-benzoyl-D-glucose.
