[A prephenate dehydratase from Flavobacterium devorans stimulated by aromatic amino acids (author's transl)]. 1980

G Krauss, and R Süssmuth, and F Lingens

Isolation and properties of prephenate dehydratase from Flavobacterium devorans r are described. The enzyme was enriched 43-fold by ammonium sulfate precipitation, by gel chromatography on ultrogel ACA-34 and by hydrophobic chromatography on decylagarose. The molecular weight was estimated to be 1.35 x 10(5). The enzyme was activated in 1mM solutions of L-tyrosine 4,4-fold, of L-phenylalanine 3.9fold and by L-tryptophan 1.9-fold in 0.02M Tris/HCl buffer at pH 7.7. The Km values were, when adding the activator, at L-tyrosine 1.5 x 10(-5) M, at L-phenylalanine 1.3 x 10(-5) M and at L-tryptophan 1 x 10(-5) M. Regulation of aromatic amino acid is discussed in connection with the prephenate dehydratase.

D011302 Prephenate Dehydratase An enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of prephenate to phenylpyruvate with the elimination of water and carbon dioxide. In the enteric bacteria this enzyme also possesses chorismate mutase activity, thereby catalyzing the first two steps in the biosynthesis of phenylalanine. EC 4.2.1.51.

D005417 Flavobacterium A genus of gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacteria widely distributed in SOIL and WATER. Its organisms are also found in raw meats, MILK and other FOOD, hospital environments, and human clinical specimens. Some species are pathogenic in humans.
D005634 Fructose-Bisphosphate Aldolase An enzyme of the lyase class that catalyzes the cleavage of fructose 1,6-biphosphate to form dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. The enzyme also acts on (3S,4R)-ketose 1-phosphates. The yeast and bacterial enzymes are zinc proteins. (Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992) E.C. 4.1.2.13.

D014364 Tryptophan An essential amino acid that is necessary for normal growth in infants and for NITROGEN balance in adults. It is a precursor of INDOLE ALKALOIDS in plants. It is a precursor of SEROTONIN (hence its use as an antidepressant and sleep aid). It can be a precursor to NIACIN, albeit inefficiently, in mammals.
