ENZYME entry: EC 4.1.3.44

Accepted Name
tRNA 4-demethylwyosine synthase (AdoMet-dependent)
Reaction catalysed
N(1)-methylguanosine(37) in tRNA(Phe) + pyruvate + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = 4-demethylwyosine(37) in tRNA(Phe) + 5'-deoxyadenosine + CO2 + H2O + L-methionine
Comment(s)
  • This enzyme, which is a member of the superfamily of S-adenosyl-L- methionine-dependent radical (radical AdoMet) enzymes, binds two [4Fe-4S] clusters.
  • Carbons C2 and C3 from pyruvate are incorporated into 4-demethylwyosine.
  • The enzyme is found in eukaryotes where it is part of the pathway for wybutosine synthesis, and in archaea, where it is involved in the biosynthesis of archaeal wye bases, such as wyosine, isowyosine, and methylwyosine.
