Accepted Name
vanillate/3-O-methylgallate O-demethylase
Reaction catalysed
  • vanillate + (6S)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate = (6S)-5-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + 3,4-dihydroxybenzoate
  • 3-O-methylgallate + (6S)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate = 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate + (6S)-5-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Sphingomonas sp. SYK6, is involved in the degradation of lignin.
  • The enzyme has similar activities with vanillate and 3-O- methylgallate.
