ENZYME entry: EC 4.2.1.110

Accepted Name
aldos-2-ulose dehydratase
Alternative Name(s)
1,5-anhydro-D-fructose dehydratase (microthecin-forming)
AUDH
pyranosone dehydratase
Reaction catalysed
1,5-anhydro-D-fructose <=> H2O + microthecin
Comment(s)
  • This enzyme catalyzes two of the steps in the anhydrofructose pathway, which leads to the degradation of glycogen and starch via 1,5-anhydro-D-fructose.
  • Aldose-2-uloses such as 2-dehydroglucose can also act as substrates, but more slowly.
  • This is a bifunctional enzyme that acts as both a lyase and as an isomerase.
  • Differs from EC 4.2.1.111, which can carry out only reaction 1, is inhibited by its product and requires metal ions for activity.
