FunFam 3: 3-isopropylmalate dehydratase small subunit

There are 2 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
3-isopropylmalate dehydratase. [EC: 4.2.1.33]
(2R,3S)-3-isopropylmalate = (2S)-2-isopropylmalate.
  • Forms part of the leucine-biosynthesis pathway.
  • Brings about the interconversion of the two isomers of isopropylmalate.

Homoaconitate hydratase. [EC: 4.2.1.36]
(1R,2S)-1-hydroxybutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylate = (Z)-but-1-ene-1,2,4- tricarboxylate + H(2)O.
  • The enzyme from the hyperthermophilic eubacterium Thermus thermophilus can catalyze the reaction shown above but cannot catalyze the previously described reaction, i.e. formation of homocitrate by hydration of cis-homoaconitate.
  • The enzyme responsible for the conversion of cis-homoaconitate into homocitrate in T.thermophilus is unknown at present but the reaction can be catalyzed in vitro using EC 4.2.1.3 from pig.
