Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
ATP + L-phenylalanine + H2O = AMP + diphosphate + D-phenylalanine the enzyme activates both L-Phe and D-Phe to form L-phenylalanyl adenylate and D-phenylalanyl adenylate bound to the enzyme, respectively, and then transfers the L-Phe and D-Phe moiety to the thiol group of the enzyme followed by conversion of its configuration, the D-isomer being the more favorable configuration Brevibacillus brevis
