Comments
This enzyme was transferred from 4.2.1.16 to 4.3.1.19.
This enzyme belongs to type-II PLP-dependent enzyme superfamily (or Tryptophan synthase beta-subunit family), according to the literature [25] & [27].
Although the catalytic mechanism of this enzyme has not been elucidated, this enzyme probably catalyzes the following reactions, considering those of other PLP-dependent enzymes (see [25]):
(A) Formation of external aldimine (with amine group of Threonine substrate),
(B) Isomerization (change in the position of double-bond),
(C) Elimination of hydroxyl group, forming double bonded carbon atoms, leading to aminoacrylate intermediate,
(D) Formation of internal aldimine, leading to the elimination of imine intermediate from PLP,
(E) Schiff-base deforming of the imine product (by hydration), producing ammonia and oxobutanoate.
