Enzyme Information

5.3.3.12
L-dopachrome isomerase.
based on mapping to UniProt P14174
L-dopachrome = 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylate.
-!- Stereospecific for L-dopachrome (5,6-dioxo-2,3-5,6-tetrahydroindole- 2-carboxylate). -!- Dopachrome methyl ester is a substrate, but dopaminochrome (2,3- dihydroxyindolyl-5,6-quinone) is not (see also EC 4.1.1.84).
5.3.2.1
Phenylpyruvate tautomerase.
based on mapping to UniProt P14174
Keto-phenylpyruvate = enol-phenylpyruvate.
-!- Also acts on other arylpyruvates.
