Type: | Domain | Name: | Strictosidine synthase, conserved region |
Description: | This entry represents a conserved region found in strictosidine synthase (), a key enzyme in alkaloid biosynthesis. It catalyses the Pictet-Spengler stereospecific condensation of tryptamine with secologanin to form strictosidine []. The structure of the native enzyme from the Indian medicinal plant Rauvolfia serpentina(Serpentwood) (Devilpepper) represents the first example of a six-bladed four-stranded beta-propeller fold from the plant kingdom []. | Short Name: | Strictosidine_synth_cons-reg |
