ENZYME entry: EC 1.3.8.3

Accepted Name
(R)-benzylsuccinyl-CoA dehydrogenase
Reaction catalysed
(R)-2-benzylsuccinyl-CoA + H(+) + oxidized [electron-transfer flavoprotein] <=> (E)-2-benzylidenesuccinyl-CoA + reduced [electron-transfer flavoprotein]
Comment(s)
  • Contains a tightly-bound FAD cofactor.
  • Unlike other acyl-CoA dehydrogenases, this enzyme exhibits high substrate- and enantiomer specificity; it is highly specific for (R)- benzylsuccinyl-CoA and is inhibited by (S)-benzylsuccinyl-CoA.
  • Forms the third step in the anaerobic toluene metabolic pathway in Thauera aromatica.
  • Ferricenium ion is an effective artificial electron acceptor.
  • Formerly EC 1.3.99.21.
