| UniProt functional annotation for Q9ZAG3 | |||
| UniProt code: Q9ZAG3. |
| Organism: | Rhodococcus erythropolis (Arthrobacter picolinophilus). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Actinobacteria; Corynebacteriales; Nocardiaceae; Rhodococcus. | |
| Function: | Catalyzes the conversion of limonene-1,2-epoxide to limonene- 1,2-diol. Can use both the (-) and (+) isomers of limonene-1,2-epoxide as substrates and also has some activity with 1-methylcyclohexene oxide, cyclohexene oxide and indene oxide as substrates. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=H2O + limonene 1,2-epoxide = limonene-1,2-diol; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:10700, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:16431, ChEBI:CHEBI:17219; EC=3.3.2.8; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:9748436}; | |
| Biophysicochemical properties: | pH dependence: Optimum pH is 7. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9748436}; Temperature dependence: Optimum temperature is 50 degrees Celsius. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9748436}; | |
| Pathway: | Terpene metabolism; (4R)-limonene degradation; (1S,4R)-1- hydroxylimonen-2-one from (4R)-limonene: step 2/3. | |
| Subunit: | Monomer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12773375, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9748436}. | |
| Induction: | By growth on monoterpenes. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the limonene-1,2-epoxide hydrolase family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
