trans-aconitate 2-methyltransferase EC#: 2.1.1.144; ChemWhat Code: 1376338

Product Name trans-aconitate 2-methyltransferase
Example Structure Example Structure of trans-aconitate 2-methyltransferase EC#: 2.1.1.144
Synonyms trans-aconitate methyltransferase
EC Number 2.1.1.144
CAS Registry Number
Comments Also catalyses the formation of the methyl monoester of cis-aconitate, isocitrate and citrate, but more slowly. While the enzyme from Escherichia coli forms (E)-3-(methoxycarbonyl)-pent-2-enedioate as the product, that from Saccharomyces cerevisiae forms (E)-2-(methoxycarbonylmethyl)butenedioate and is therefore classified as a separate enzyme (cf. EC 2.1.1.145, trans-aconitate 3-methyltransferase).
Cofactor
History
