(R)-benzylsuccinyl-CoA dehydrogenase EC#: 1.3.8.3; ChemWhat Code: 1374160

Product Name (R)-benzylsuccinyl-CoA dehydrogenase
Example Structure Example Structure of (R)-benzylsuccinyl-CoA dehydrogenase EC#: 1.3.8.3
Synonyms BbsG
EC Number 1.3.8.3
CAS Registry Number
Comments Requires FAD as prosthetic group. Unlike other acyl-CoA dehydrogenases, this enzyme exhibits high substrate- and enantiomer specificity it is highly specific for (R)-benzylsuccinyl-CoA and is inhibited by (S)-benzylsuccinyl-CoA. Forms the third step in the anaerobic toluene metabolic pathway in Thauera aromatica. Ferricenium ion is an effective artificial electron acceptor.
Cofactor FAD
History
Reactions (R)-2-benzylsuccinyl-CoA + electron-transfer flavoprotein = (E)-2- benzylidenesuccinyl-CoA + reduced electron-transfer flavoprotein.
