Chorismate Mutase
Introduction
Chorismate mutase is an essential enzyme in the shikimate pathway[1]. This pathway allows for the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids tryptophan, tyrosine, and phenylalanine [1]. The production of tyrosine and phenylalanine is achieved by what is called a Claisen arrangement. first converting chorismate to prephenate. Prephenate then reacts with prephenate dehydratase and prephenate dehydrogenase which forms phenylpyruvate and hydroxyphenylpyruvate. After this occursm aminotransferase converts hydroxy-phenylpyruvate and phenylpyruvate to phenylalanine and tyrosine. Chorismate mutase provides a 2x106 fold increase in the rate of reaction, in comparison to the uncatalyzed reaction
