The mechanism of the triosephosphate isomerase reaction.
The interconversion of dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate catalyzed by the enzyme triosephosphate isomerase was first demonstrated by Meyerhof and Kiessling (1). Since then studies with the enzyme have disclosed little about the mechanism of this reaction. Such an interconversion may be envisioned as occurring by formation of an enediol as, based on chemical analogy (2)) ...
متن کاملAnalysis of flavanone 3-hydroxylase in Arabidopsis seedlings. Coordinate regulation with chalcone synthase and chalcone isomerase.
A genomic clone encoding flavanone 3-hydroxylase (F3H) was isolated from Arabidopsis thaliana. The deduced amino acid sequence is 72 to 94% identical to all previously reported F3H proteins. Low-stringency DNA blot analysis indicated that F3H is encoded by a single gene in Arabidopsis. The F3H locus was mapped to the bottom of chromosome 3 and therefore does not correspond to any of the 13 flav...
متن کاملChalcone isomerase family and fold: no longer unique to plants.
Chalcone isomerase, an enzyme in the isoflavonoid pathway in plants, catalyzes the cyclization of chalcone into (2S)-naringenin. Chalcone isomerase sequence family and three-dimensional fold appeared to be unique to plants and has been proposed as a plant-specific gene marker. Using sensitive methods of sequence comparison and fold recognition, we have identified genes homologous to chalcone is...
متن کاملEnzymes do what is expected (chalcone isomerase versus chorismate mutase).
Madicago sativa chalcone isomerase (CI) catalyzes the isomerization of chalcone to flavanone, whereas E. coli chorismate mutase (CM) catalyzes the pericyclic rearrangement of chorismate to prephenate. Covalent intermediates are not formed in either of the enzyme-catalyzed reactions, K(M) and k(cat) are virtually the same for both enzymes, and the rate constants (k(o)) for the noncatalyzed react...
متن کاملNucleotide variation at the CHALCONE ISOMERASE locus in Arabidopsis thaliana.
An approximately 1.9-kb region encompassing the CHI gene, which encodes chalcone isomerase, was sequenced in 24 worldwide ecotypes of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. and in 1 ecotype of A. lyrata ssp. petraea. There was no evidence for dimorphism at the CHI region. A minimum of three recombination events was inferred in the history of the sampled ecotypes of the highly selfing A. thaliana. The...
