EC 2.5.1.80 Details
EC number
2.5.1.80
Accepted name
7-dimethylallyltryptophan synthase
Reaction
prenyl diphosphate + L-tryptophan = diphosphate + 7-prenyl-L-tryptophan
Other name(s)
7-DMATS,
dimethylallyl-diphosphate:L-tryptophan 7-dimethylallyltransferase
Systematic name
prenyl-diphosphate:L-tryptophan 7-prenyltransferase
Comment
This enzyme is more flexible towards the aromatic substrate than EC 2.5.1.34 (4-dimethylallyltryptophan synthase), but similar to that enzyme, accepts only prenyl diphosphate as the prenyl donor.
