Maleylacetate reductase from Trichosporon cutaneum.

A B Gaal, H Y Neujahr
PMCID: PMC1161460  PMID: 7387635

Abstract

The enzyme catalysing the reduction of maleylacetate to 3-oxoadipate was purified 150-fold from Trichosporon cutaneum, induced for aromatic metabolisms by growth with resorcinol as a major carbon source. The enzyme separated upon electrofocusing into three species with PI values 4.6, 5.1 and 5.6. They had similar catalytic properties and the same molecular weight.
