1.1.1.318 wild-type native apo-EGS, EGS as binary complex with cofactor NADPH or mixed competitive inhibitor (7S,8S)-ethyl (7,8-methylene)-dihydroferulate, or holo-EGS as ternary complex of bound to NADPH and inhibitor, from 0.1 M sodium succinate, pH 5.5, 5 mM NADP+, 0.3 M KCl, 2 mM DTT and 21% w/v PEG 3350, or from 0.1 M MOPSO, pH 6.5-7.0, 5 mM NADP+, 0.3 M KNO3, 2 mM DTT, and 28% w/v PEG monomethylether 5000, at 4°C, X-ray diffraction structure determination and analysis at 1.6-1.8 A resolution, modeling Ocimum basilicum

Inhibitors

EC Number Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
1.1.1.318 (7S,8S)-ethyl (7,8-methylene)-dihydroferulate EMDF, a mixed competitive inhibitor, chemical synthesis, and enzyme binding structure, overview. Key interactions between EMDF and the EGS holoenzyme include stacking of the phenyl ring of EMDF against the cofactor's nicotinamide ring and a water-mediated hydrogen-bonding interaction between the EMDF 4-hydroxy group and the side-chain amino moiety of a conserved lysine residue, Lys132 Ocimum basilicum

Reaction

EC Number Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
1.1.1.318 eugenol + a carboxylate + NADP+ = a coniferyl ester + NADPH + H+ eugenol synthase catalyzes the reductive displacement of acetate from the propenyl side chain of the substrate coniferyl acetate to produce the allyl-phenylpropene eugenol, two-step reaction mechanism involving the formation of a quinone-methide prior to reduction, overview. The formation of this intermediate is promoted by a hydrogen-bonding network that favors deprotonation of the substrate's 4-hydroxyl group and disfavors binding of the acetate moiety, akin to a push-pull catalytic mechanism, involvement of a quinone-methide, a conjugated enone, intermediate in the bond cleavage Ocimum basilicum
