Activating Compound

EC Number Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
5.5.1.19 NAD(P)H absolutely required for cyclization reaction. No hydrogen is transferred from NADPH, which is therefore not involved directly in the cyclization reaction, but must play an indirect role, e.g. as an allosteric activator Pantoea ananatis

5.5.1.19 lycopene the hydrogen atom introduced at C(2) in the cyclization comes from water and not from NADPH. The mechanism involves the initiation of cyclization by H+ attack at C(2) of the folded acyclic end group of the precursor Pantoea ananatis beta-carotene
