The Chorismate Dehydratatase MqnA is an enzyme that acts upon chorismate, a biochemical intermediate in plants and microorganisms. On the futalosine pathway, it converts chorismate to EPB by removing water. MqnA is the only known chorismate dehydratase. | |||
The example we are showing is from Streptomyces coelicolor. The other mutant MqnA are from Escherichia coli. | |||
