ENZYME entry: EC 1.2.7.8

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/1.2.7.8
Accepted Name
indolepyruvate ferredoxin oxidoreductase
Alternative Name(s)
3-(indol-3-yl)pyruvate synthase (ferredoxin)
IOR
Reaction catalysed
indole-3-pyruvate + 2 oxidized [2Fe-2S]-[ferredoxin] + CoA = (indol-3-yl)acetyl-CoA + 2 reduced [2Fe-2S]-[ferredoxin] + CO2 + H(+)
Comment(s)
  • Preferentially utilizes the transaminated forms of aromatic amino acids and can use phenylpyruvate and 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate as substrates.
  • This enzyme, which is found in archaea, is a member of the 2-oxoacid oxidoreductases, a family of enzymes that oxidatively decarboxylate different 2-oxoacids to form their CoA derivatives, and are differentiated based on their substrate specificity.
  • For examples of other members of this family, see EC 1.2.7.3 and EC 1.2.7.7.
