ENZYME entry: EC 4.1.2.25

Accepted Name
dihydroneopterin aldolase
Alternative Name(s)
2-amino-4-hydroxy-6-(D-erythro-1,2,3-trihydroxypropyl)-7,8- dihydropteridine glycolaldehyde-lyase
7,8-dihydroneopterin aldolase
Reaction catalysed
7,8-dihydroneopterin <=> 6-hydroxymethyl-7,8-dihydropterin + glycolaldehyde
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme participates in folate (in bacteria, plants and fungi) and methanopterin (in archaea) biosynthesis.
  • The enzymes from the bacterium Escherichia coli and the plant Arabidopsis thaliana also catalyze the epimerisation of the 2' hydroxy-group (EC 5.1.99.8).
  • The enzyme from the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis is trifunctional and also catalyzes EC 5.1.99.8 and EC 1.13.11.81.
  • The enzyme from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae also catalyzes the two subsequent steps in the folate biosynthesis pathway - EC 2.7.6.3 and EC 2.5.1.15.
