Isochorismate hydroxymutase (isochorismate synthase, E.C. 5.4.99.6) catalyzes the interconversion of chorismic acid [1] and isochorismic acid [2]. The enzyme was extracted from a Flavobacterium K3-15 that overproduces vitamin K2 (i.e., menaquinones) and was purified to homogeneity. The N-terminal amino acid sequence and the mol wt (36,240 +/- 100 daltons) were determined by ms following SDS PAG electrophoresis. The enzyme was characterized (stability, cofactor requirement, isoelectrical point), and antibodies were raised which showed no cross reactivity with isochorismate hydroxymutase from Escherichia coli and Enterobacter aerogenes 62-1. The kinetic data of the enzyme are different from those observed for the corresponding enzyme from Escherichia coli and Galium mollugo.

D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008969 Molecular Sequence Data Descriptions of specific amino acid, carbohydrate, or nucleotide sequences which have appeared in the published literature and/or are deposited in and maintained by databanks such as GENBANK, European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), National Biomedical Research Foundation (NBRF), or other sequence repositories. Sequence Data, Molecular,Molecular Sequencing Data,Data, Molecular Sequence,Data, Molecular Sequencing,Sequencing Data, Molecular
D008970 Molecular Weight The sum of the weight of all the atoms in a molecule. Molecular Weights,Weight, Molecular,Weights, Molecular
D002827 Chorismic Acid A cyclohexadiene carboxylic acid derived from SHIKIMIC ACID and a precursor for the biosynthesis of UBIQUINONE and the AROMATIC AMINO ACIDS. Acid, Chorismic
D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
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.
D000595 Amino Acid Sequence The order of amino acids as they occur in a polypeptide chain. This is referred to as the primary structure of proteins.
