Accepted name: alditol oxidase
Reaction: an alditol + O2 = an aldose + H2O2
Other name(s): xylitol oxidase; xylitol:oxygen oxidoreductase; AldO
Systematic name: alditol:oxygen oxidoreductase
Comments: The enzyme from Streptomyces sp. IKD472 and from Streptomyces coelicolor is a monomeric oxidase containing one molecule of FAD per molecule of protein [1,2]. While xylitol (five carbons) and sorbitol (6 carbons) are the preferred substrates, other alditols, including L-threitol (four carbons), D-arabinitol (five carbons), D-galactitol (six carbons) and D-mannitol (six carbons) can also act as substrates, but more slowly [1,2]. Belongs in the vanillyl-alcohol-oxidase family of enzymes [2].

Systematic name: sn-glycerol 3-phosphate:quinone oxidoreductase
Comments: This flavin-dependent dehydrogenase is an essential membrane enzyme, functioning at the central junction of glycolysis, respiration and phospholipid biosynthesis. In bacteria, the enzyme is localized to the cytoplasmic membrane [6], while in eukaryotes it is tightly bound to the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane [2]. In eukaryotes, this enzyme, together with the cytosolic enzyme EC 1.1.1.8, glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD+), forms the glycerol-3-phosphate shuttle by which NADH produced in the cytosol, primarily from glycolysis, can be reoxidized to NAD+ by the mitochondrial electron-transport chain [3]. This shuttle plays a critical role in transferring reducing equivalents from cytosolic NADH into the mitochondrial matrix [7,8]. Insect flight muscle uses only CoQ10 as the physiological quinone whereas hamster and rat mitochondria use mainly CoQ9 [4]. The enzyme is activated by calcium [3].

EC 1.3.5.2
Accepted name: dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (quinone)
Reaction: (S)-dihydroorotate + a quinone = orotate + a quinol
Other name(s): dihydroorotate:ubiquinone oxidoreductase; (S)-dihydroorotate:(acceptor) oxidoreductase; (S)-dihydroorotate:acceptor oxidoreductase; DHOdehase (ambiguous); DHOD (ambiguous); DHODase (ambiguous); DHODH
Systematic name: (S)-dihydroorotate:quinone oxidoreductase
Comments: This Class 2 dihydroorotate dehydrogenase enzyme contains FMN [4]. The enzyme is found in eukaryotes in the mitochondrial membrane, in cyanobacteria, and in some Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria associated with the cytoplasmic membrane [2,5,6]. The reaction is the only redox reaction in the de-novo biosynthesis of pyrimidine nucleotides [2,4]. The best quinone electron acceptors for the enzyme from bovine liver are ubiquinone-6 and ubiquinone-7, although simple quinones, such as benzoquinone, can also act as acceptor at lower rates [2]. Methyl-, ethyl-, tert-butyl and benzyl (S)-dihydroorotates are also substrates, but methyl esters of (S)-1-methyl and (S)-3-methyl and (S)-1,3-dimethyldihydroorotates are not [2]. Class 1 dihydroorotate dehydrogenases use either fumarate (EC 1.3.98.1), NAD+ (EC 1.3.1.14) or NADP+ (EC 1.3.1.15) as electron acceptor.

EC 2.1.3.10
Accepted name: malonyl-S-ACP:biotin-protein carboxyltransferase
Reaction: a malonyl-[acyl-carrier protein] + a biotinyl-[protein] = an acetyl-[acyl-carrier protein] + a carboxybiotinyl-[protein]
For diagram of malonate decarboxylase, click here
Other name(s): malonyl-S-acyl-carrier protein:biotin-protein carboxyltransferase; MadC/MadD; MadC,D; malonyl-[acyl-carrier protein]:biotinyl-[protein] carboxyltransferase
Systematic name: malonyl-[acyl-carrier protein]:biotinyl-[protein] carboxytransferase
Comments: Derived from the components MadC and MadD of the anaerobic bacterium Malonomonas rubra, this enzyme is a component of EC 7.2.4.4, biotin-dependent malonate decarboxylase. The carboxy group is transferred from malonate to the cofactor of the biotin protein (MadF) with retention of configuration [2]. Similar to EC 4.1.1.87, malonyl-S-ACP decarboxylase, which forms part of the biotin-independent malonate decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.88), this enzyme also follows on from EC 2.3.1.187, acetyl-S-ACP:malonate ACP transferase, and results in the regeneration of the acetyl-[acyl-carrier protein] [3].

*EC 2.3.1.39
Accepted name: [acyl-carrier-protein] S-malonyltransferase
Reaction: malonyl-CoA + an [acyl-carrier protein] = CoA + a malonyl-[acyl-carrier protein]
For diagram of malonate decarboxylase, click here
Other name(s): [acyl carrier protein]malonyltransferase; FabD; malonyl coenzyme A-acyl carrier protein transacylase; malonyl transacylase; malonyl transferase; malonyl-CoA-acyl carrier protein transacylase; malonyl-CoA:[acyl-carrier-protein] S-malonyltransferase; malonyl-CoA:ACP transacylase; malonyl-CoA:ACP-SH transacylase; malonyl-CoA:AcpM transacylase; malonyl-CoA:acyl carrier protein transacylase; malonyl-CoA:acyl-carrier-protein transacylase; malonyl-CoA/dephospho-CoA acyltransferase; MAT; MCAT; MdcH
Systematic name: malonyl-CoA:[acyl-carrier protein] S-malonyltransferase
Comments: This enzyme, along with EC 2.3.1.38, [acyl-carrier-protein] S-acetyltransferase, is essential for the initiation of fatty-acid biosynthesis in bacteria. This enzyme also provides the malonyl groups for polyketide biosynthesis [7]. The product of the reaction, malonyl-ACP, is an elongation substrate in fatty-acid biosynthesis. In Mycobacterium tuberculosis, holo-ACP (the product of EC 2.7.8.7, holo-[acyl-carrier-protein] synthase) is the preferred substrate [5]. This enzyme also forms part of the multienzyme complexes EC 4.1.1.88, biotin-independent malonate decarboxylase and EC 7.2.4.4, biotin-dependent malonate decarboxylase. Malonylation of ACP is immediately followed by decarboxylation within the malonate-decarboxylase complex to yield acetyl-ACP, the catalytically active species of the decarboxylase [12]. In the enzyme from Klebsiella pneumoniae, methylmalonyl-CoA can also act as a substrate but acetyl-CoA cannot [10] whereas the enzyme from Pseudomonas putida can use both as substrates [11]. The ACP subunit found in fatty-acid biosynthesis contains a pantetheine-4′-phosphate cofactor; that from malonate decarboxylase also contains pantetheine-4′-phosphate but in the form of a 2′-(5-triphosphoribosyl)-3′-dephospho-CoA cofactor.

EC 2.3.1.187
Accepted name: acetyl-S-ACP:malonate ACP transferase
Reaction: an acetyl-[acyl-carrier protein] + malonate = a malonyl-[acyl-carrier protein] + acetate

Other name(s): acetyl-S-ACP:malonate ACP-SH transferase; acetyl-S-acyl-carrier protein:malonate acyl-carrier-protein-transferase; MdcA; MadA; ACP transferase; malonate/acetyl-CoA transferase; malonate:ACP transferase; acetyl-S-acyl carrier protein:malonate acyl carrier protein-SH transferase
Systematic name: acetyl-[acyl-carrier-protein]:malonate S-[acyl-carrier-protein]transferase
Comments: This is the first step in the catalysis of malonate decarboxylation and involves the exchange of an acetyl thioester residue bound to the activated acyl-carrier protein (ACP) subunit of the malonate decarboxylase complex for a malonyl thioester residue [2]. This enzyme forms the α subunit of the multienzyme complexes biotin-independent malonate decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.88) and biotin-dependent malonate decarboxylase (EC 7.2.4.4). The enzyme can also use acetyl-CoA as a substrate but more slowly [4].

*EC 2.4.1.14
Accepted name: sucrose-phosphate synthase
Reaction: UDP-α-D-glucose + D-fructose 6-phosphate = UDP + sucrose 6F-phosphate
Other name(s): UDP-glucose—fructose-phosphate glucosyltransferase; sucrosephosphate—UDP glucosyltransferase; UDP-glucose-fructose-phosphate glucosyltransferase; SPS; uridine diphosphoglucose-fructose phosphate glucosyltransferase; sucrose 6-phosphate synthase; sucrose phosphate synthetase; sucrose phosphate-uridine diphosphate glucosyltransferase; sucrose phosphate synthase; UDP-glucose:D-fructose-6-phosphate 2-α-D-glucosyltransferase
Systematic name: UDP-α-D-glucose:D-fructose-6-phosphate 2-α-D-glucosyltransferase (configuration-retaining)
Comments: Requires Mg2+ or Mn2+ for maximal activity [2]. The enzyme from Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 is not specific for UDP-glucose as it can use ADP-glucose and, to a lesser extent, GDP-glucose as substrates [2]. The enzyme from rice leaves is activated by glucose 6-phosphate but that from cyanobacterial species is not [2]. While the reaction catalysed by this enzyme is reversible, the enzyme usually works in concert with EC 3.1.3.24, sucrose-phosphate phosphatase, to form sucrose, making the above reaction essentially irreversible [3]. The F in sucrose 6F-phosphate is used to indicate that the fructose residue of sucrose carries the substituent.

EC 2.4.1.246
Accepted name: mannosylfructose-phosphate synthase
Reaction: GDP-mannose + D-fructose 6-phosphate = GDP + β-D-fructofuranosyl-α-D-mannopyranoside 6F-phosphate
Glossary: mannosylfructose = β-D-fructofuranosyl-α-D-mannopyranoside
Other name(s): mannosylfructose-6-phosphate synthase; MFPS
Systematic name: GDP-mannose:D-fructose-6-phosphate 2-α-D-mannosyltransferase
Comments: This enzyme, from the soil proteobacterium and plant pathogen Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain C58, requires Mg2+ or Mn2+ for activity. GDP-mannose can be replaced by ADP-mannose but with a concomitant decrease in activity. The product of this reaction is dephosphorylated by EC 3.1.3.79 (mannosylfructose-phosphate phosphatase) to form the non-reducing disaccharide mannosylfructose, which is the major endogenous osmolyte produced by several α-proteobacteria in response to osmotic stress. The F in the product name is used to indicate that the fructose residue of sucrose carries the substituent.

Other name(s): mannosylfructose-6-phosphate phosphatase; MFPP
Systematic name: β-D-fructofuranosyl-α-D-mannopyranoside-6F-phosphate phosphohydrolase
Comments: This enzyme, from the soil proteobacterium and plant pathogen Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain C58, requires Mg2+ for activity. Mannosylfructose is the major endogenous osmolyte produced by several α-proteobacteria in response to osmotic stress and is synthesized by the sequential action of EC 2.4.1.246 (mannosylfructose-phosphate synthase) followed by this enzyme. While mannosylfructose 6-phosphate is the physiological substrate, the enzyme can use sucrose 6-phosphate very efficiently. The F in mannosylfructose 6F-phosphate is used to indicate that the fructose residue of sucrose carries the substituent.

Systematic name: glycopeptide-D-galactosyl-N-acetyl-α-D-galactosamine D-galactosyl-N-acetyl-galactosaminohydrolase
Comments: The enzyme catalyses the liberation of Gal-(1→3)-β-GalNAc α-linked to serine or threonine residues of mucin-type glycoproteins. EngBF from the bacterium Bifidobacterium longum specifically acts on core 1-type O-glycan to release the disaccharide Gal-(1→3)-β-GalNAc. The enzymes from the bacteria Clostridium perfringens, Enterococcus faecalis, Propionibacterium acnes and Alcaligenes faecalis show broader specificity (e.g. they can also release the core 2 trisaccharide Gal-(1→3)-β-(GlcNAc-(1→6)-β)-GalNAc or the core 3 disaccharide GlcNAc-(1→3)-β-GalNAc) [1,2]. The enzyme may play an important role in the degradation and utilization of mucins having core 1 O-glycan.

EC 4.1.1.88
Accepted name: biotin-independent malonate decarboxylase
Reaction: malonate + H+ = acetate + CO2
For diagram of the reactions involved in the multienzyme complex malonate decarboxylase, click here
Other name(s): malonate decarboxylase (without biotin); malonate decarboxylase (ambiguous); MDC
Systematic name: malonate carboxy-lyase (biotin-independent)
Comments: Two types of malonate decarboxylase are currently known, both of which form multienzyme complexes. This enzyme is a cytosolic protein that is biotin-independent. The other type is a biotin-dependent, Na+-translocating enzyme that includes both soluble and membrane-bound components (cf. EC 7.2.4.4, biotin-dependent malonate decarboxylase). As free malonate is chemically rather inert, it has to be activated prior to decarboxylation. In both enzymes, this is achieved by exchanging malonate with an acetyl group bound to an acyl-carrier protiein (ACP), to form malonyl-ACP and acetate, with subsequent decarboxylation regenerating the acetyl-ACP. The ACP subunit of both enzymes differs from that found in fatty-acid biosynthesis by having phosphopantethine attached to a serine side-chain as 2-(5-triphosphoribosyl)-3-dephospho-CoA rather than as phosphopantetheine 4′-phosphate. The individual enzymes involved in carrying out the reaction of this enzyme complex are EC 2.3.1.187 (acetyl-S-ACP:malonate ACP transferase), EC 2.3.1.39 ([acyl-carrier-protein] S-malonyltransferase) and EC 4.1.1.87 (malonyl-S-ACP decarboxylase). The carboxy group is lost with retention of configuration [6].
