Description
The enzyme from the Gram-negative bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa is involved in the biosynthesis of 2-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline and 2,4-dihydroxyquinoline. 2-Heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline is a signal molecule, that is involved in regulation of virulence factor production and biofilm formation. The enzyme shows a broad specificity and is involved in the synthesis of a wide array of additional 2-alkyl-4(1H)-quinolones synthesized by the organism.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Reaction
(1) 3-oxodecanoate + anthraniloyl-CoA = CoA + 2-heptyl-4(1H)-quinolone + CO2 + H2O; (2) malonyl-CoA + anthraniloyl-CoA = 2 CoA + 4-hydroxy-2(1H)-quinolone + CO2
