EC 5.3.2.8 Details
show Brenda entryEC number
5.3.2.8
Accepted name
4-oxalomesaconate tautomerase
Reaction
(1E)-4-oxobut-1-ene-1,2,4-tricarboxylate = (1E,3E)-4-hydroxybuta-1,3-diene-1,2,4-tricarboxylate
Other name(s)
GalD
Systematic name
4-oxalomesaconate keto—enol-isomerase
Comment
This enzyme has been characterized from the bacterium Pseudomonas putida KT2440 and is involved in the degradation pathway of syringate and 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate. It catalyses the interconversion of two of the tautomers of 4-oxalomesaconate, a reaction that can also occur spontaneously.
