1,5-anhydro-D-fructose dehydratase

Cat No.

EXWM-4951

Description

This enzyme catalyses one of the steps in the anhydrofructose pathway, which leads to the degradation of glycogen and starch via 1,5-anhydro-D-fructose. The other enzymes involved in this pathway are EC 4.2.1.110 (aldos-2-ulose dehydratase), EC 4.2.2.13 [exo-(1→4)-α-D-glucan lyase] and EC 5.3.2.7 (ascopyrone tautomerase). Requires divalent (Ca2+ or Mg2+) or monovalent cations (Na+) for optimal activity. Unlike EC 4.2.1.110, the enzyme is specific for 1,5-anhydro-D-fructose as substrate and shows no activity towards aldose-2-uloses such as 2-dehydroglucose. In addition, it is inhibited by its end-product ascopyrone M and it cannot convert ascopyrone M into microthecin, as can EC 4.2.1.110.

Form

Liquid or lyophilized powder

Enzyme Commission Number

EC 4.2.1.111

Storage

Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC～-80 ºC.

Reaction

1,5-anhydro-D-fructose = 1,5-anhydro-4-deoxy-D-glycero-hex-3-en-2-ulose + H2O
