Deacetylisoipecoside synthase

The enzyme deacetylisoipecoside synthase (EC 4.3.3.3) catalyzes the chemical reaction


 * deacetylisoipecoside + H2O $$\rightleftharpoons$$ dopamine + secologanin

This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically amine lyases, which cleave carbon-nitrogen bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is deacetylisoipecoside dopamine-lyase (secologanin-forming). It is also called deacetylisoipecoside dopamine-lyase. It participates in indole and ipecac alkaloid biosynthesis.
