Chorismate Mutase
Introduction
The gene Rv1885c from Mycobacteriam tuberculosis encodes for a non-functional chorismate mutase (*MtCM)[1]. This non-functional mutase has a 33-amino-acid cleavable sequence [1]. It is a vital enzyme in the shikimate pathway, which allows for the synthesis of tryptophan, tyrosinem and phenylalanine [1]. Chorismate mutase provides a 2x106 fold increase in the rate of reacrion in comparision to the uncatalyzed reaction [2]. Chorismate mutase only occurs in bacteria, higher plants, and fungi, due to the fact that the shikimate pathway is only found in these organisms [3]. In Escherichia coli, chorismate mutase has a periplasmic destination[1]. In M. tuberculosis there is in abscence of a periplasmic compartment for chorismate mutase, so it secretes into the culture filtrate of M. tuberculosis[1]. It is believed that a pseudoperiplasmic space might exist in M. tuberculosis[1]. Rv1885c is synthesized along with the 33-amino-acid terminal sequence, which when expressed with Escherichia coli, is cleaved off the mature protein[1]. Chorismate mutase is the only example of an enzyme catalyzing a percyclic reaction [3]

Mechanism
in michaelis menten kinetics it has Km of 0.5 ± 0.05 mM and Kcat of 60 s-1 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 [4]. It is the only example of an enzyme catalyzing a percyclic reaction [3]
