ENZYME entry: EC 3.1.1.80

Accepted Name
acetylajmaline esterase
Alternative Name(s)
2beta(R)-17-O-acetylajmalan:acetylesterase
AAE
acetylajmalan esterase
Reaction catalysed
  • 17-O-acetylajmaline + H2O = acetate + ajmaline + H(+)
  • 17-O-acetylnorajmaline + H2O = acetate + H(+) + norajmaline
Comment(s)
  • Responsible for the last stages in the biosynthesis of the indole alkaloid ajmaline.
  • Highly specific for the substrates 17-O-acetylajmaline and 17-O- acetylnorajmaline as the structurally related acetylated alkaloids vinorine, vomilenine, 1,2-dihydrovomilenine and 1,2- dihydroraucaffricine cannot act as substrates.
