EC 4.2.99.23 Details
EC number
4.2.99.23
Accepted name
tuliposide B-converting enzyme
Reaction
6-tuliposide B = tulipalin B + D-glucose
Systematic name
6-tuliposide B D-glucose-lyase (tulipalin B-forming)
Comment
The enzyme, characterized from pollen of the plant Tulipa gesneriana (tulip), catalyses the intramolecular transesterification of 6-tuliposide B to form the antibiotic aglycon tulipalin B as a sole product. It does not catalyse the hydrolysis of 6-tuliposide B to form a hydroxy acid. The enzyme has marginal activity with 6-tuliposide A. cf. EC 4.2.99.22, tuliposide A-converting enzyme.
