Accepted name: |
indoleacetate—CoA ligase |
Reaction: |
ATP + (indol-3-yl)acetate + CoA = AMP + diphosphate + (indol-3-yl)acetyl-CoA |
Other name(s): |
iaaB (gene name) |
Systematic name: |
(indol-3-yl)acetate:CoA ligase (AMP-forming) |
Comments: |
The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Aromatoleum aromaticum, is involved in degradation of (indol-3-yl)acetate. It is also active with phenylacetate and the non-physiological compound (2-naphthyl)acetate. |
