ENZYME - 1.5.1.43 carboxynorspermidine synthase

Accepted Name
carboxynorspermidine synthase
Alternative Name(s)
carboxynorspermidine dehydrogenase
carboxyspermidine dehydrogenase
Reaction catalysed
  • carboxynorspermidine + NADP(+) + H2O = L-aspartate 4-semialdehyde + propane-1,3-diamine + NADPH + H(+)
  • carboxyspermidine + NADP(+) + H2O = L-aspartate 4-semialdehyde + putrescine + NADPH + H(+)
Comment(s)
  • The reaction takes place in the opposite direction.
  • Part of a bacterial polyamine biosynthesis pathway.
  • L-aspartate 4-semialdehyde and propane-1,3-diamine/putrescine form a Schiff base that is reduced to form carboxynorspermidine/carboxyspermidine, respectively.
  • The enzyme from the bacterium Vibrio cholerae is essential for biofilm formation.
  • The enzyme from Campylobacter jejuni only produces carboxyspermidine in vivo even though it also can produce carboxynorspermidine in vitro.
