Enzyme Information

3.1.7.8
Tuberculosinol synthase.
based on mapping to UniProt P9WJ61
Tuberculosinyl diphosphate + H(2)O = tuberculosinol + diphosphate.
-!- Only found in species of Mycobacterium that cause tuberculosis. -!- In addition, it also gives isotuberculosinol in 1:1 mixture, cf. EC 3.1.7.9.
3.1.7.9
Isotuberculosinol synthase.
based on mapping to UniProt P9WJ61
Tuberculosinyl diphosphate + H(2)O = (13S)-isotuberculosinol + diphosphate.
-!- Only found in species of Mycobacterium that cause tuberculosis. -!- In addition, it also gives tuberculosinol in 1:1 mixture, cf EC 3.1.7.8. -!- The isotuberculosinol form was a 3:1 mixture of the 13S and 13R forms, respectively.
