Stabilisation of eudesmane cation by tryptophan 334 during aristolochene synthase catalysis.

Athina Deligeorgopoulou1, Susan E Taylor, Silvia Forcat, Rudolf K Allemann.   

Abstract

Analysis of the hydrocarbons produced during catalysis by mutants of aristolochene synthase from Penicillium roqueforti indicated that Trp 334 had a pivotal function for the efficient production of aristolochene from farnesylpyrophosphate most likely by stabilising the intermediate, eudesmane cation.
