ENZYME entry: EC 6.3.2.52

Accepted Name
Jasmonoyl--L-amino acid synthetase.
Reaction catalysed
ATP + jasmonate + an L-amino acid <=> AMP + diphosphate + a jasmonoyl-L-amino acid
Comment(s)
Two jasmonoyl-L-amino acid synthetases have been described from Nicotiana attenuata and one from Arabidopsis thaliana. The N.attenuata enzymes generate jasmonoyl-L-isoleucine, jasmonoyl-L- leucine, and jasmonoyl-L-valine. The enzyme from A.thaliana could catalyze the addition of many different amino acids to jasmonate in vitro. While the abundant form of jasmonate in plants is (-)-jasmonate, the active form of jasmonoyl-L-isoleucine is (+)-7-iso-jasmonoyl-L- isoleucine.
