Proposed Changes to the Enzyme List

The entries below are proposed additions and amendments to the Enzyme Nomenclature list. They were prepared for the NC-IUBMB by Kristian Axelsen, Ron Caspi, Ture Damhus, Shinya Fushinobu, Julia Hauenstein, Antje Jäde, Ingrid Keseler, Masaaki Kotera, Andrew McDonald, Gerry Moss, Ida Schomburg and Keith Tipton. Comments and suggestions on these draft entries should be sent to Dr Andrew McDonald (Department of Biochemistry, Trinity College Dublin, Dublin 2, Ireland). The date on which an enzyme will be made official is appended after the EC number. To prevent confusion please do not quote new EC numbers until they are incorporated into the main list.

An asterisk before 'EC' indicates that this is an amendment to an existing enzyme rather than a new enzyme entry.

EC 1.3.1.120
Accepted name: cyclohexane-1-carbonyl-CoA reductase (NADP+)
Reaction: cyclohexane-1-carbonyl-CoA + NADP+ = cyclohex-1-ene-1-carbonyl-CoA + NADPH + H+
Other name(s): 1-cyclohexenylcarbonyl-CoA reductase (ambiguous); chcA (gene name)
Systematic name: cyclohexane-1-carbonyl-CoA:NADP+ 1-oxidoreductase
Comments: The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Streptomyces collinus, is involved in a pathway that transforms shikimate to cyclohexane-1-carbonyl-CoA by a series of dehydration and double-bond reduction steps. Most of the steps in this process occur with the carboxylic acid activated as a coenzyme A thioester. The enzyme catalyses three steps in this pathway, also acting on (3R,4R)-3,4-dihydroxycyclohexa-1,5-diene-1-carbonyl-CoA and (5S)-5-hydroxycyclohex-1-ene-1-carbonyl-CoA.

Other name(s): KDM2A (gene name); KDM2B (gene name); JHDM1A (gene name); JHDM1B (gene name); JmjC domain-containing histone demethylase 1A; H3-K36-specific demethylase (ambiguous); histone-lysine (H3-K36) demethylase (ambiguous); histone demethylase (ambiguous); protein-6-N,6-N-dimethyl-L-lysine,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase; protein-N6,N6-dimethyl-L-lysine,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase; [histone-H3]-lysine-36 demethylase
Systematic name: [histone H3]-N6,N6-dimethyl-L-lysine36,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase
Comments: Requires iron(II). Of the seven potential methylation sites in histones H3 (K4, K9, K27, K36, K79) and H4 (K20, R3) from HeLa cells, the enzyme is specific for Lys36. Lysine residues exist in three methylation states (mono-, di- and trimethylated). The enzyme preferentially demethylates the dimethyl form of Lys36 (K36me2), which is its natural substrate, to form the monomethylated and unmethylated forms of Lys36. It can also demethylate monomethylated (but not the trimethylated) Lys36. cf. EC 1.14.11.69, [histone H3]-trimethyl-L-lysine36 demethylase.

Systematic name: [histone H3]-N6,N6,N6-trimethyl-L-lysine36,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase
Comments: Requires iron(II). This entry describes a group of enzymes that demethylate N-methylated Lys36 residues in the tail of the histone protein H3 (H3K36). This lysine residue can exist in three methylation states (mono-, di- and trimethylated), but this group of enzymes only act on the the tri- and di-methylated forms. The enzymes are dioxygenases and act by hydroxylating the methyl group, forming an unstable hemiaminal that leaves as formaldehyde. Since trimethylation of H3K36 enhances transcription, this enzyme acts as a transcription repressor. The enzymes that possess this activity often also catalyse the activity of EC 1.14.11.66, [histone H3]-trimethyl-L-lysine9 demethylase. cf. EC 1.14.11.27, [histone H3]-dimethyl-L-lysine36 demethylase.

Systematic name: [histone H3]-N6,N6-dimethyl-L-lysine4:acceptor oxidoreductase (demethylating)
Comments: The enzyme specifically removes methyl groups from mono- and dimethylated lysine4 of histone 3. During the reaction the substrate is oxidized by the FAD cofactor of the enzyme to generate the corresponding imine, which is subsequently hydrolysed in the form of formaldehyde.The enzyme is similar to flavin amine oxidases, and differs from all other known histone lysine demethylases, which are iron(II)- and 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases. The physiological electron acceptor is not known with certainty. In vitro the enzyme can use oxygen, which is reduced to hydrogen peroxide, but generation of hydrogen peroxide in the chromatin environment is unlikely as it will result in oxidative damage of DNA.

Other name(s): KMT5A (gene name); SET8 (gene name); PR-SET7 (gene name)
Systematic name: S-adenosyl-L-methionine:[histone H4]-L-lysine20 N6-methyltransferase
Comments: The enzyme catalyses the monomethylation of the L-lysine20 residue of histone H4 (H4K20). This event is usually followed by further methylation by EC 2.1.1.362, [histone H4]-N-methyl-L-lysine20 N-methyltransferase. This enzyme plays a pivotal role in DNA replication. Activity is high during the G2 and M phases, but declines significantly during G1 and S phases. Mutations in the enzyme have severe consequences, including DNA double-strand breaks, activation of DNA damage checkpoints, defective cell cycle progression, and reduced cell proliferation.

Systematic name: S-adenosyl-L-methionine:[histone H4]-N6-methyl-L-lysine20 N6-methyltransferase
Comments: This entry describes a group of enzymes that catalyse a single methylation of monomethylated lysine20 of histone H4 (H4K20m1, generated by EC 2.1.1.361, [histone H4]-lysine20 N-methyltransferase), forming the dimethylated form. This modification is broadly distributed across the genome and is likely important for general chromatin-mediated processes. The double-methylated form of lysine20 in histone H4 is the most abundant methylation state of this residue and is found on ~80% of all histone H4 molecules. Full activity of the enzyme requires that the lysine at position 9 of histone H3 is trimethylated.

Systematic name: malonyl-CoA/(S)-methylmalonyl-CoA:4-nitrobenzoyl-CoA (methyl)malonyltransferase (demethylluteothin-forming)
Comments: This polyketide synthase, characterized from the bacterium Streptomyces thioluteus, generates the backbone of the antibiotic aureothin. It is composed of 4 modules that total 18 domains and is encoded by three genes. The enzyme accepts the unusual starter unit 4-nitrobenzoyl-CoA and extends it by 4 molecules of (S)-methylmalonyl-CoA and a single molecule of malonyl-CoA. The first module (encoded by aurA) is used twice in an iterative fashion, so that the five Claisen condensation reactions are catalysed by only four modules. The iteration becomes possible by the transfer of the [acp]-bound polyketide intermediate back to the ketosynthase (KS) domain on the opposite polyketide synthase strand (polyketides are homodimeric).

Systematic name: GDP-β-L-fucose:β-D-galactosyl-(1→4)-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyl-R 3-α-L-fucosyltransferase (configuration-inverting)
Comments: Normally acts on a glycoconjugate where R (see reaction) is a glycoprotein or glycolipid. This enzyme fucosylates on O-3 of an N-acetylglucosamine that carries a galactosyl group on O-4, unlike EC 2.4.1.65, 3-galactosyl-N-acetylglucosaminide 4-α-L-fucosyltransferase, which fucosylates on O-4 of an N-acetylglucosamine that carries a galactosyl group on O-3.

Other name(s): iroE (gene name)
Systematic name: apo-salmochelin esterase
Comments: This bacterial enzyme is present in pathogenic Salmonella species, uropathogenic and avian pathogenic Escherichia coli strains, and certain Klebsiella strains. Unlike EC 3.1.1.108, iron(III)-enterobactin esterase, which acts only on enterobactin, this enzyme can also act on the C-glucosylated forms known as salmochelins. Unlike EC 3.1.1.109, iron(III)-salmochelin esterase (IroD), IroE prefers apo siderophores as substrates, and is assumed to act before the siderophores are exported out of the cell. It hydrolyses the trilactone only once, producing linearized trimers.

Other name(s): MAN1B1 (gene name); MNS1 (gene name); MNS3 (gene name)
Systematic name: Man9GlcNAc2-[protein]2-α-mannohydrolase (configuration-inverting)
Comments: The enzyme, located in the endoplasmic reticulum, primarily trims a single α-1,2-linked mannose residue from Man9GlcNAc2 to produce Man8GlcNAc2 isomer 8A1,2,3B1,3 (the names of the isomers listed here are based on a nomenclature system proposed by Prien et al [7]). The removal of the single mannosyl residue occurs in all eukaryotes as part of the processing of N-glycosylated proteins, and is absolutely essential for further elongation of the outer chain of properly-folded N-glycosylated proteins in yeast. In addition, the enzyme is involved in glycoprotein quality control at the ER quality control compartment (ERQC), helping to target misfolded glycoproteins for degradation. When present at very high concentrations in the ERQC, the enzyme can trim the carbohydrate chain further to Man(5-6)GlcNAc2.
