|
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- Catalyzes one of the steps in the anhydrofructose pathway, which
leads to the degradation of glycogen and starch via 1,5-anhydro-D-
fructose.
- The other enzymes involved in this pathway are EC 4.2.1.110,
EC 4.2.2.13 and EC 5.3.2.7.
- Unlike EC 4.2.1.110 the enzyme is specific for 1,5-anhydro-D-fructose
as substrate and shows no activity toward aldose-2-uloses such as
2-dehydroglucose; in addition, it is inhibited by its end-product
ascopyrone M and it cannot convert the end-product ascopyrone M into
microthecin, as can EC 4.2.1.110.
