A new class EC 7, Translocases, has been added to the EC list. It will be part of ENZYME from release 2018_10. Read more about EC 7 here.

ENZYME entry: EC 2.5.1.89

Accepted Name
Tritrans,polycis-undecaprenyl-diphosphate synthase (geranylgeranyl- diphosphate specific).
Reaction catalysed
Geranylgeranyl diphosphate + 7 isopentenyl diphosphate <=> 7 diphosphate + tritrans,heptacis-undecaprenyl diphosphate
Comment(s)
  • This enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of the glycosyl carrier lipid in some archaebacteria.
  • Unlike EC 2.5.1.31, its counterpart in most bacteria, it prefers geranylgeranyl diphosphate to farnesyl diphosphate as the allylic substrate, resulting in production of a tritrans,polycis variant of undecaprenyl diphosphate.
