Glossary:

dehypoxanthine futalosine = 3-{3-[(2R,3S,4R)-3,4,5-trihydroxytetrahydrofuran-2-yl]propanoyl}benzoate
cyclic dehypoxanthinyl futalosine = (2R,3S,4R)-3,4,5-trihydroxy-4′-oxo-3′,4,4′,5-tetrahydro-2’H,3H-spiro[furan-2,1′-naphthalene]-6′-carboxylate

Other name(s):

MqnC; dehypoxanthinyl futalosine cyclase

Systematic name:

dehypoxanthine futalosine:S-adenosyl-L-methionine oxidoreductase (cyclizing)

Comments:

This enzyme is a member of the ‘AdoMet radical’ (radical SAM) family. The enzyme, found in several bacterial species, is part of the futalosine pathway for menaquinone biosynthesis.
