Novel exported bifunctional fusion enzymes with chorismate mutase and cyclohexadienyl dehydratase activity: shikimate pathway enzymes teamed up in no man’s land

Authors : Stocker, Christian (2023)

Chorismate mutase (CM) and cyclohexadienyl dehydratase (CDT) catalyze two subsequent reactions in the intracellular biosynthesis of phenylalanine. Surprisingly, exported CMs and CDTs exist in bacterial pathogens. Here, we report the discovery of novel and extremely rare exported bifunctional fusion enzymes, consisting of fused CM and CDT domains. Such enzymes were found in only nine bacterial species belonging to nonpathogenic γ- or β-proteobacteria....
