Glossary: muconolactone = (2,5-dihydro-5-oxofuran-2-yl)acetate
cis,cis-hexadienedioate = (2Z,4Z)-hexa-2,4-dienedioate = cis,cis-muconate
Other name(s): muconate cycloisomerase I; cis,cis-muconate-lactonizing enzyme; cis,cis-muconate cycloisomerase; muconate lactonizing enzyme; 4-carboxymethyl-4-hydroxyisocrotonolactone lyase (decyclizing); CatB; MCI; 2,5-dihydro-5-oxofuran-2-acetate lyase (decyclizing)
Systematic name: 2,5-dihydro-5-oxofuran-2-acetate lyase (ring-opening)
Comments: Requires Mn2+. Also acts (in the reverse reaction) on 3-methyl-cis,cis-hexadienedioate and, very slowly, on cis,trans-hexadienedioate. Not identical with EC 5.5.1.7 (chloromuconate cycloisomerase) or EC 5.5.1.11 (dichloromuconate cycloisomerase).
