Comments The enzymes from the bacteria?Pseudomonas aeruginosa?and?Xenorhabdus nematophila?are involved in the biosynthesis of paerucumarin and rhabduscin, respectively. According to the proposed mechanism, the enzyme forms an imine intermediate composed of linked?L-tyrosine and?D-ribulose 5-phosphate, followed by loss of the phosphate group and formation of a ¦Â-keto imine and keto-enol tautomerization. This is followed by a C-C bond cleavage, the release of acetol, and a retro aldol type reaction that releases formaldehyde and forms the final product [3].?cf. EC?4.1.99.25,?L-tryptophan isonitrile synthase.
