EC 5.3.3.16 Details
EC number
5.3.3.16
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 gallate. It catalyses the interconversion of two of the tautomers of 4-oxalomesaconate, a reaction that can also occur spontaneously.
