- 4-coumarate-CoA ligase
In
enzymology , a 4-coumarate-CoA ligase (EC number|6.2.1.12) is anenzyme that catalyzes thechemical reaction :ATP + 4-coumarate + CoA AMP + diphosphate + 4-coumaroyl-CoA
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are ATP,
4-coumarate , and CoA, whereas its 3 products are AMP,diphosphate , and4-coumaroyl-CoA .This enzyme belongs to the family of
ligase s, specifically those forming carbon-sulfur bonds as acid-thiol ligases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 4-coumarate:CoA ligase (AMP-forming). Other names in common use include 4-coumaroyl-CoA synthetase, p-coumaroyl CoA ligase, p-coumaryl coenzyme A synthetase, p-coumaryl-CoA synthetase, p-coumaryl-CoA ligase, feruloyl CoA ligase, hydroxycinnamoyl CoA synthetase, 4-coumarate:coenzyme A ligase, caffeolyl coenzyme A synthetase, p-hydroxycinnamoyl coenzyme A synthetase, feruloyl coenzyme A synthetase, sinapoyl coenzyme A synthetase, 4-coumaryl-CoA synthetase, hydroxycinnamate:CoA ligase, p-coumaryl-CoA ligase, p-hydroxycinnamic acid:CoA ligase, and 4CL. This enzyme participates inphenylpropanoid biosynthesis .References
