Proposed Changes to the Enzyme List

The entries below are proposed additions and amendments to the Enzyme Nomenclature list. The entries below are proposed additions and amendments to the Enzyme Nomenclature list. They were prepared for the NC-IUBMB by Kristian Axelsen, Richard Cammack, Ron Caspi, Masaaki Kotera, Andrew McDonald, Gerry Moss, Dietmar Schomburg, Ida Schomburg and Keith Tipton. Comments and suggestions on these draft entries should be sent to Dr Andrew McDonald (Department of Biochemistry, Trinity College Dublin, Dublin 2, Ireland). The entries were added on the date indicated and fully approved after four weeks.

An asterisk before 'EC' indicates that this is an amendment to an existing enzyme rather than a new enzyme entry.

Systematic name: L-glutamate γ-semialdehyde:NAD+ oxidoreductase

Comments: This enzyme catalyses the irreversible oxidation of glutamate-γ-semialdehyde to glutamate as part of the proline degradation pathway. (S)-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate, the product of the first enzyme of the pathway (EC 1.5.99.8, proline dehydrogenase) is in spontaneous equilibrium with its tautomer L-glutamate γ-semialdehyde. In many bacterial species, both activities are carried out by a single bifunctional enzyme [3,4].The enzyme can also oxidize other 1-pyrrolines, e.g. 3-hydroxy-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate is converted into 4-hydroxyglutamate and (R)-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate is converted into D-glutamate. NADP+ can also act as acceptor, but with lower activity [5].

Other name(s): ATP-diphosphatase; adenosine diphosphatase; ADPase; ATP diphosphohydrolase [ambiguous]

Systematic name: nucleoside triphosphate phosphohydrolase (nucleoside monophosphoate-forming)

Comments: Apyrases are active against both di- and triphosphate nucleotides (NDPs and NTPs) and hydrolyse NTPs to nucleotide monophosphates (NMPs) in two distinct successive phosphate-releasing steps, with NDPs as intermediates. They differ from ATPases, which specifically hydrolyse ATP, by hydrolysing both ATP and ADP. The eukaryotic enzymes requires Ca2+, but Mg2+ can substitute. Most of the ecto-ATPases that occur on the cell surface and hydrolyse extracellular nucleotides belong to this enzyme family.

This phosphate can be transferred to the free OH of phosphoglycerate, followed by transfer of the phosphate already on the phosphoglycerate back to the histidine. cf. EC 5.4.2.12 phosphoglycerate mutase. The enzyme has no requirement for metal ions. This enzyme also catalyse, slowly, the reactions of EC 5.4.2.4 bisphosphoglycerate mutase.

EC 6.3.3.5

Accepted name: O-ureido-D-serine cyclo-ligase

Reaction: O-ureido-D-serine + ATP + H2O = D-cycloserine + CO2 + ammonia + ADP + phosphate

Glossary: O-ureido-D-serine = (2R)-2-amino-3-[(carbamoylamino)oxy]propanoate

Other name(s): dcsG (gene name)

Systematic name: O-ureido-D-serine cyclo-ligase (D-cycloserine-forming)

Comments: The enzyme participates in the biosynthetic pathway of D-cycloserine, an antibiotic substance produced by several Streptomyces species.

EC 6.3.4.23

Accepted name: formate—phosphoribosylaminoimidazolecarboxamide ligase

Reaction: ATP + formate + 5-amino-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamide = ADP + phosphate + 5-formamido-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamide

Other name(s): 5-formaminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide synthetase; 5-formaminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-D-ribofuranosyl 5'-monophosphate synthetase; purP (gene name)

Systematic name: formate:5-amino-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamide ligase (ADP-forming)

Comments: This archaeal enzyme, characterized from the methanogen Methanocaldococcus jannaschii, catalyses a step in the synthesis of purine nucleotides. It differs from the orthologous bacterial/eukaryotic enzymes, which utilize 10-formyltetrahydrofolate rather than formate and ATP. cf. EC 2.1.2.3, phosphoribosylaminoimidazolecarboxamide formyltransferase.
