Thiazole tautomerase
Thiazole tautomerase (EC 5.3.99.10, tenI (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name 2-(2-carboxy-4-methylthiazol-5-yl)ethyl phosphate isomerase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- 2-[(2R,5Z)-2-carboxy-4-methylthiazol-5(2H)-ylidene]ethyl phosphate
2-(2-carboxy-4-methylthiazol-5-yl)ethyl phosphate
The enzyme catalyses the irreversible aromatization of the thiazole moiety of 2-[(2R,5Z)-2-carboxy-4-methylthiazol-5(2H)-ylidene]ethyl phosphate.
