Name
beta-pyrazolylalanine synthase;
beta-(1-pyrazolyl)alanine synthase;
beta-pyrazolealanine synthase;
beta-pyrazolylalanine synthase (acetylserine);
O3-acetyl-L-serine acetate-lyase (adding pyrazole);
BPA-synthase;
pyrazolealanine synthase;
pyrazolylalaninase;
3-O-acetyl-L-serine:pyrazole 1-(2-amino-2-carboxyethyl)transferase;
O3-acetyl-L-serine:pyrazole 1-(2-amino-2-carboxyethyl)transferase
Class
Transferases;
Transferring alkyl or aryl groups, other than methyl groups;
Transferring alkyl or aryl groups, other than methyl groups (only sub-subclass identified to date)
Sysname
O-acetyl-L-serine:pyrazole 1-(2-amino-2-carboxyethyl)transferase
Reaction(IUBMB)
O-acetyl-L-serine + pyrazole = 3-(pyrazol-1-yl)-L-alanine + acetate [RN:R03134]
Reaction(KEGG)
R03134
Substrate
O-acetyl-L-serine [CPD:C00979];
pyrazole [CPD:C00481]
Product
3-(pyrazol-1-yl)-L-alanine [CPD:C01162];
acetate [CPD:C00033]
Comment
The enzyme is highly specific for acetylserine and pyrazole. Not identical with EC 2.5.1.52 L-mimosine synthase.
History
EC 2.5.1.51 created 1989 as EC 4.2.99.14 (EC 4.2.99.17 incorporated 1992), transferred 2002 to EC 2.5.1.51
