EC 5.3.2.5 Details
EC number
5.3.2.5
Accepted name
2,3-diketo-5-methylthiopentyl-1-phosphate enolase
Reaction
5-(methylsulfanyl)-2,3-dioxopentyl phosphate = 2-hydroxy-5-(methylsulfanyl)-3-oxopent-1-enyl phosphate
Other name(s)
DK-MTP-1-P enolase, MtnW, YkrW, RuBisCO-like protein, RLP, 2,3-diketo-5-methylthiopentyl-1-phosphate ketoenol-isomerase
Systematic name
5-(methylsulfanyl)-2,3-dioxopentyl phosphate ketoenol-isomerase
Comment
The enzyme participates in the methionine salvage pathway in Bacillus subtilis [2].In some species a single bifunctional enzyme, EC 3.1.3.77, acireductone synthase, catalyses both this reaction and EC 3.1.3.87, 2-hydroxy-3-keto-5-methylthiopentenyl-1-phosphate phosphatase [1].
