Enzyme Commission Number
EC 5.1.1.14
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
(1) isonocardicin C = nocardicin C
(2) isonocardicin A = nocardicin A
Systematic Name
nocardicin-C epimerase
Function
Requires pyridoxal 5′-phosphate. The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Nocardia uniformis, is involved in the biosynthesis of the monolactam antibiotic nocardicin A. It catalyses the epimerization of the amino group at position 9′ from (S)- configuration to (R)-. The enzyme can act on both isonocardicin A and isonocardicin C, but the in vivo substrate appears to be the latter.
Other name
isonocardicin A epimerase; nocJ (gene name)
