FunFam 25339: 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase, putat...

There are 4 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase. [EC: 3.5.99.7]
1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate + H(2)O = 2-oxobutanoate + NH(3).
  • The enzyme, found in certain soil bacteria and fungi, catalyzes the ring opening of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate, the immediate precursor to ethylene, an important plant hormone that regulates fruit ripening and other processes.
  • The enzyme releases an unstable enamine product that tautomerizes to an imine form, which undergoes spontaneous hydrolytic deamination.
  • The enzyme has been used to make fruit ripening dependent on externally added ethylene, as it removes the substrate for endogenous ethylene formation.
  • Formerly EC 4.1.99.4.

D-cysteine desulfhydrase. [EC: 4.4.1.15]
D-cysteine + H(2)O = H(2)S + NH(3) + pyruvate.

    L-cysteate sulfo-lyase. [EC: 4.4.1.25]
    L-cysteate + H(2)O = hydrogensulfite + pyruvate + NH(3).
    • The enzyme cleaves a carbon-sulfur bond, releasing bisulfite and an unstable enamine product that tautomerizes to an imine form, which undergoes a hydrolytic deamination to form pyruvate and ammonia.
    • The latter reaction, which can occur spontaneously, can also be catalyzed by EC 3.5.99.10.
    • D-cysteine can also act as a substrate, but more slowly.
    • It is converted into pyruvate, sulfide and ammonia.
    • The inducible enzyme from Silicibacter pomeroyi DSS-3 forms part of the cysteate-degradation pathway.

    Sulfopyruvate decarboxylase. [EC: 4.1.1.79]
    3-sulfopyruvate = 2-sulfoacetaldehyde + CO(2).
    • Does not decarboxylate pyruvate or phosphonopyruvate.
    • The enzyme appears to be oxygen-sensitive.
