4.2.3.133 | geranylgeranyl diphosphate + H2O |
it is proposed that a basic amino acid residue of the enzyme abstracts a proton from a molecule of water as the hydroxyl adds to the double bond at carbon7 of geranylgeranyl diphosphate. Concerted cyclization occurs and the double bond at carbon14 of geranylgeranyl diphosphate (carbon-3 of (8R)-hydroxy-copalyl diphosphate) is protonated. This concerted mechanism accounts for the addition of a single atom of 18O and a single atom of deuterium to geranylgeranyl diphosphate to form (8R)-hydroxy-copalyl diphosphate |
