EC 3.2.2.30 Details
EC number
3.2.2.30
Accepted name
aminodeoxyfutalosine nucleosidase
Reaction
6-amino-6-deoxyfutalosine + H2O = dehypoxanthine futalosine + adenine
Other name(s)
AFL nucleosidase, aminofutalosine nucleosidase, methylthioadenosine nucleosidase, MqnB (ambiguous)
Systematic name
6-amino-6-deoxyfutalosine ribohydrolase
Comment
The enzyme, found in several bacterial species, catalyses a step in a modified futalosine pathway for menaquinone biosynthesis. While the enzyme from some organisms also has the activity of EC 3.2.2.9, adenosylhomocysteine nucleosidase, the enzyme from Chlamydia trachomatis is specific for 6-amino-6-deoxyfutalosine [7].
