IPR032465

Description

IPR032465 is a 2-amino-3-carboxymuconate-6-semialdehyde decarboxylase.

<p>2-amino-3-carboxymuconate-6-semialdehyde decarboxylase, also known as picolinate carboxylase or ACMSD, is a member of the amidohydrolase superfamily involved in tryptophan metabolism [[cite:PUB00076371], [cite:PUB00076373]]. It converts alpha-amino-beta-carboxymuconate-epsilon-semialdehyde (ACMS) to alpha-aminomuconate semialdehyde (AMS). ACMSD has medical importance as its substrate ACMS is unstable and dehydrates to quinolinic acid (QUIN, QA), not only a key precursor of NAD, but also a potent neurotoxin [[cite:PUB00076372]]. Elevated levels of QUIN have been observed in several neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative conditions [[cite:PUB00076368], [cite:PUB00076369], [cite:PUB00076370]].</p> <p>The entry also includes decarboxylases OrsB, MacB and YanB, and salicylate decarboxylase.</p> <p>YanB is a decarboxylase and part of the gene cluster that mediates the biosynthesis of yanuthone D, a fungal isoprenoid epoxycyclohexenone that acts as an antibiotic against fungi and bacteria [[cite:PUB00083261]]. Salicylate decarboxylase has been shown to catalyse both the decarboxylation of salicylic acid to produce phenol, and the carboxylation of phenol to form salicylic acid [[cite:PUB00086569]].</p>
