1,5-anhydro-D-fructose dehydratase
Template:Short description Template:Infobox enzyme
The enzyme 1,5-anhydro-D-fructose dehydratase (Template:EnzExplorer) catalyzes the chemical reaction
- 1,5-anhydro-D-fructose 1,5-anhydro-4-deoxy-D-glycero-hex-3-en-2-ulose + HTemplate:SubO
It catalyzes two steps in the anhydrofructose pathway process.[1]
This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the hydro-lyases, which cleave carbon-oxygen bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 1,5-anhydro-D-fructose hydro-lyase (ascopyrone-M-forming). Other names in common use include 1,5-anhydro-D-fructose 4-dehydratase, 1,5-anhydro-D-fructose hydrolyase, 1,5-anhydro-D-arabino-hex-2-ulose dehydratase, AFDH, AF dehydratase, and 1,5-anhydro-D-fructose hydro-lyase.
