Description
Forms part of the leucine biosynthesis pathway. The enzyme brings about the interconversion of the two isomers of isopropylmalate. It contains an iron-sulfur cluster.
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.
Synonyms
(2R,3S)-3-isopropylmalate hydro-lyase; β-isopropylmalate dehydratase; isopropylmalate isomerase; α-isopropylmalate isomerase; 3-isopropylmalate hydro-lyase
Reaction
(2R,3S)-3-isopropylmalate = (2S)-2-isopropylmalate (overall reaction); (1a) (2R,3S)-3-isopropylmalate = 2-isopropylmaleate + H2O; (1b) 2-isopropylmaleate + H2O = (2S)-2-isopropylmalate
