2.5.1.52
Description L-mimosine synthase
Catalyzed reaction O3-acetyl-L-serine + 3,4-dihydroxypyridine = 3-(3,4-dihydroxypyridin- 1-yl)-L-alanine + acetate.
Cofactor Pyridoxal-phosphate.
Comments -!- Brings about the biosynthesis of L-mimosine in mimosa and Leucaena sp.
-!- Not identical with EC 2.5.1.51.

Formerly EC 4.2.99.15.

The only functionally validated sequence (from Leucaena leucocephala) is in fact a cysteine synthase possessing also a secondary activity as mimosine synthase.
The protein has been included in family 2.5.1.47.
