ENZYME entry: EC 4.1.99.20

Accepted Name
3-amino-4-hydroxybenzoate synthase
Alternative Name(s)
3,4-AHBA synthase
Reaction catalysed
2-amino-4,5-dihydroxy-6-oxo-7-(phosphooxy)heptanoate <=> 3-amino-4-hydroxybenzoate + H(+) + 2 H2O + phosphate
Comment(s)
  • The reaction is suggested to take place in several steps.
  • Schiff base formation, double bond migration and dephosphorylation followed by ring opening and closing to form a pyrrolidine ring, and finally dehydration to form the product 3-amino-4- hydroxybenzoate.
  • In the bacterium Streptomyces griseus the enzyme is involved in biosynthesis of grixazone, a yellow pigment that contains a phenoxazinone chromophore.
  • Formerly EC 4.3.3.n1.
