General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
1.14.19.9 metabolism tryptophan 7-halogenase catalyzes chlorination of free tryptophan to 7-chlorotryptophan, which is the first step in the antibiotic pyrrolnitrin biosynthesis. Purified KtzQ and KtzR are tandem acting halogenases that catalyze the regiospecific dichlorination of L-tryptophan to produce 6,7-dichloro-L-tryptophan, KtzQ is specific for L-Trp or 6-chloro-L-Trp halogenation at C-7, while KtzR is specific for halogenation of C-6 of 7-chloro-L-Trp Kutzneria sp. 744
1.14.19.9 physiological function enzyme KtzQ (along with the flavin reductase KtzS) acts to chlorinate at the 7-position of L-tryptophan Kutzneria sp. 744
