EC 1.3.8.15 Details
EC number
1.3.8.15
Accepted name
3-(aryl)acrylate reductase
Reaction
(1) phloretate + electron-transfer flavoprotein = 4-coumarate + reduced electron-transfer flavoprotein;;(2) 3-phenylpropanoate + electron-transfer flavoprotein = trans-cinnamate + reduced electron-transfer flavoprotein;;(3) 3-(1H-indol-3-yl)propanoate + electron-transfer flavoprotein = 3-(indol-3-yl)acrylate + reduced electron-transfer flavoprotein;;
Other name(s)
acdA (gene name)
Systematic name
3-(phenyl)propanoate:electron-transfer flavoprotein 2,3-oxidoreductase
Comment
The enzyme, found in some amino acid-fermenting anaerobic bacteria, participates in the fermentation pathways of L-phenylalanine, L-tyrosine, and L-tryptophan. Unlike EC 1.3.1.31, 2-enoate reductase, this enzyme has minimal activity with crotonate.
