ENZYME entry: EC 1.14.13.217

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/1.14.13.217
Accepted Name
protodeoxyviolaceinate monooxygenase
Alternative Name(s)
protoviolaceinate synthase
Reaction catalysed
  • protodeoxyviolaceinate + NADPH + O2 + H(+) = protoviolaceinate + NADP(+) + H2O
  • protodeoxyviolaceinate + NADH + O2 + H(+) = protoviolaceinate + NAD(+) + H2O
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Chromobacterium violaceum, participates in the biosynthesis of the violet pigment violacein.
  • The immediate product, protoviolaceinate, can be acted upon by EC 1.14.13.224, leading to violacein production.
  • However, it is very labile, and in the presence of oxygen can be converted to the shunt product proviolacein.
