Application

Application Comment Organism
synthesis the enzyme participates in psilocybin formation from 4-hydroxyindole and L-serine, which are less cost-intensive substrates, compared to the previous method. The pharmaceutical interest in this psychotropic natural product as a future medication to treat depression and anxiety is strongly reemerging. Enzymatic production of 7-phosphoryloxytryptamine (isonorbaeocystin), a non-natural congener of the Psilocybe alkaloid norbaeocystin (4-phosphoryloxytryptamine), and of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) by means of the same in vitro approach Psilocybe cubensis

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function the enzyme is part of the tryptophan synthase complex. Indole formation is catalyzed by the alpha-subunit (TrpBalpha), L-tryptophan production is catalyzed by the beta-subunit (TrpBbeta) Psilocybe cubensis
