4.2.1.159

Accepted name:

dTDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-α-D-glucopyranose 2,3-dehydratase

Reaction:

dTDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-α-D-glucopyranose = dTDP-3,4-didehydro-2,6-dideoxy-α-D-glucose + H₂O (overall reaction)
(1a) dTDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-α-D-glucopyranose = dTDP-2,6-dideoxy-D-glycero-hex-2-enos-4-ulose + H₂O
(1b) dTDP-2,6-dideoxy-D-glycero-hex-2-enos-4-ulose = dTDP-3,4-didehydro-2,6-dideoxy-α-D-glucose (spontaneous)

Other name(s):

jadO (gene name); evaA (gene name); megBVI (gene name); eryBV (gene name); mtmV (gene name); oleV (gene name); spnO (gene name); TDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-D-glucose 2,3-dehydratase; dTDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-α-D-glucopyranose hydro-lyase (dTDP-(2R,6S)-2,4-dihydroxy-6-methyl-2,6-dihydropyran-3-one-forming)

Systematic name:

dTDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-α-D-glucopyranose hydro-lyase (dTDP-2,6-dideoxy-D-glycero-hex-2-enos-4-ulose-forming)

Comments:

The enzyme participates in the biosynthesis of several deoxysugars, including β-L-4-epi-vancosamine, α-L-megosamine, L- and D-olivose, D-oliose, D-mycarose, forosamine and β-L-digitoxose. In vitro the intermediate can undergo a spontaneous decomposition to maltol [2,3].
