| Accepted name: |
3,6-anhydro-L-galactonate cycloisomerase |
| Reaction: |
3,6-anhydro-L-galactonate = 2-dehydro-3-deoxy-L-galactonate |
| Other name(s): |
3,6-anhydro-α-L-galactonate lyase (ring-opening); 3,6-anhydro-α-L-galactonate cycloisomerase |
| Systematic name: |
3,6-anhydro-L-galactonate lyase (ring-opening) |
| Comments: |
The enzyme, characterized from the marine bacteria Vibrio sp. EJY3 and Postechiella marina M091, is involved in a degradation pathway for 3,6-anhydro-α-L-galactopyranose, a major component of the polysaccharides of red macroalgae. |
