EC number
2.3.1.206
Accepted name
3,5,7-trioxododecanoyl-CoA synthase
Reaction
3 malonyl-CoA + hexanoyl-CoA = 3 CoA + 3,5,7-trioxododecanoyl-CoA + 3 CO2
Other name(s)
TKS (ambiguous), olivetol synthase (incorrect)
Systematic name
malonyl-CoA:hexanoyl-CoA malonyltransferase (3,5,7-trioxododecanoyl-CoA-forming)
Comment
A polyketide synthase catalysing the first committed step in the cannabinoids biosynthetic pathway of the plant Cannabis sativa. The enzyme was previously thought to also function as a cyclase, but the cyclization is now known to be catalysed by EC 4.4.1.26, olivetolic acid cyclase.
