EC 1.5.1.46 Details

show Brenda entry

EC number

1.5.1.46

Accepted name

agroclavine dehydrogenase

Reaction

agroclavine + NADP⁺ = 6,8-dimethyl-6,7,8,9-tetradehydroergoline + NADPH + H⁺

Other name(s)

easG (gene name)

Systematic name

agroclavine:NADP⁺ oxidoreductase

Comment

The enzyme participates in the biosynthesis of ergotamine, an ergot alkaloid produced by some fungi of the Clavicipitaceae family. The reaction is catalysed in the opposite direction to that shown. The substrate for the enzyme is an iminium intermediate that is formed spontaneously from chanoclavine-I aldehyde in the presence of glutathione.
