4.2.3.9 additional information the replacement of Trp 334 with para-substituted phenylalanines of increasing electron-withdrawing properties leads to a progressive accumulation of germacrene A that shows a good correlation with the interaction energies of simple cations such as Na+ with substituted benzenes. Evidence for the stabilizing role played by Trp334 in aristolochene synthase catalysis for the energetically demanding transformation of germacrene A to eudesmane cation. Replacement of tryptophan by para-substituted phenylalanines with strong electron-withdrawing substituents has only minor effects on the KM values of the reaction but leads to approximately 30fold decreases of kcat relative to mutant W334F. Noncanonical substitutions lead to the following ratios of products: W334naphthyl 78% aristolochene, 22% germacrene A, W334-p-chlorophenylalanine or W334-p-fluorophenylalanine 57% aristolochene, 43% germacrene A, W334-p-trifluoromethylphenylalanine 31% aristolochene, 69% germacrene A, W334-p-nitrophenylalanine 23% aristolochene, 77% germacrene A Penicillium roqueforti
4.2.3.9 W334F ratio of products: 82% aristolochene, 18% germacrene A Penicillium roqueforti
4.2.3.9 W334H ratio of products: 10% aristolochene, 90% germacrene A Penicillium roqueforti

4.2.3.9 W334Y ratio of products: 62% aristolochene, 38% germacrene A Penicillium roqueforti

4.2.3.9 (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate reaction proceeds via germacrene A and eudesmane cation. The amount of germacrene A generated by mutant enzymes serves as a measure of the stabilization of eudesmane cation Penicillium roqueforti aristolochene + diphosphate wild-type, about 8% of germacrene A as by-product. His-tagged wild-type, about 4% of germacrene A ?
