| Accepted name: |
dihydrorhizobitoxine desaturase |
| Reaction: |
dihydrorhizobitoxine + 2 reduced ferredoxin [iron-sulfur] cluster + O2 + 2 H+ = rhizobitoxine + 2 oxidized ferredoxin [iron-sulfur] cluster + 2 H2O |
| Glossary: |
dihydrorhizobitoxine = (2S)-2-amino-4-[(2R)-2-amino-3-hydroxypropoxy]butanoate
rhizobitoxine = (2S,3E)-2-amino-4-[(2R)-2-amino-3-hydroxypropoxy]but-3-enoate |
| Other name(s): |
rtxC (gene name) |
| Systematic name: |
dihydrorhizobitoxine,ferredoxin:oxygen oxidoreductase (3,4 trans-dehydrogenating) |
| Comments: |
The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Bradyrhizobium elkanii, catalyses the final step in the biosynthesis of the nodulation enhancer compound rhizobitoxine. |
