3-Dehydroquinate synthase is an enzyme that mostly degenerates in bacteria , but also in eukaryotes and archaea . It catalyzes the second reaction step of the shikimic acid pathway . In this case, 3-Desoxyarabinoheptulosanat 7-phosphate to 3-dehydroquinate cyclized .

properties

In plants and microorganisms, the shikimic acid pathway enzymes are important for the production of the three aromatic amino acids . In 1970, SL Rotenberg and DB Sprinson, together with Turner et al . (1975) describe the exact reaction mechanism. The catalysis takes place in the enzyme with the help of multi-stage reaction mechanisms, u. a. alcohol oxidation, β-phosphate elimination, carbonyl reduction, ring opening and intramolecular aldol condensation . In some organisms, it forms a multi-enzyme complex , which as AROM complex is known. This complex is a pentafunctional polypeptide that can catalyze several steps in the shikimic acid pathway.

use

The DHQ synthases from Xanthomonas oryzae and Helicobacter pylori are of particular importance for drug development . The enzyme from X. oryzae can be used as a potential antibiotic target , whereas in H. pylori the enzyme can act as a potential antimicrobial and antiparasitic agent and herbicide . In medicine, the enzyme from Mycobacterium tuberculosis is used as a target for the treatment of tuberculosis .
