Product Information

Cat #

MEVP-4157

Enzyme Commission Number

EC 4.1.1.119

Product Overview

High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.

Reaction

phenylacetate = toluene + CO2

Systematic Name

phenylacetate carboxy-lyase

Function

This bacterial enzyme, isolated from anoxic, toluene-producing microbial communities, is a glycyl radical enzyme. It needs to be activated by a dedicated activating enzyme (PhdA). The activase catalyses the reductive cleavage of AdoMet, producing a 5′-deoxyadenosyl radical that leads to the production of the glycyl radical in PhdB.

CAS No.
