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.
