EC | 4.1.1.103 | ||||||||||
Accepted name: | γ-resorcylate decarboxylase | ||||||||||
Reaction: | 2,6-dihydroxybenzoate = 1,3-dihydroxybenzene + CO2 | ||||||||||
Glossary: | 2,6-dihydroxybenzoate = γ-resorcylate 1,3-dihydroxybenzene = resorcinol |
||||||||||
Other name(s): | graF (gene name); tsdA (gene name) | ||||||||||
Systematic name: | 2,6-dihydroxybenzoate carboxy-lyase | ||||||||||
Comments: | The enzyme, characterized from several bacterial strains, is involved in the degradation of γ-resorcylate. It contains a zinc ion and a water molecule at the active site. The reaction is reversible, but equilibrium greatly favors the decarboxylation reaction. | ||||||||||
