In cyclic amides
Sysname
cyclic-imide amidohydrolase (ring-opening)
Reaction(IUBMB)
maleimide + H2O = maleamic acid [RN:R05781]
Reaction(KEGG)
R05781
Substrate
maleimide [CPD:C07272];
H2O [CPD:C00001]

Comment
Succinimide and glutarimide, and sulfur-containing cyclic imides, such as rhodanine, can also act as substrates for the enzyme from Blastobacter sp. A17p-4. The reverse, cyclization, reaction is also catalysed, but much more slowly. It has lower activity towards cyclic ureides, which are the substrates of EC 3.5.2.2, dihydropyrimidinase.
