Pentalenic acid synthase

Pentalenic acid synthase (, CYP105D7, sav7469 (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * 1-deoxypentalenate + reduced ferredoxin + O2 $$\rightleftharpoons$$ pentalenate + oxidized ferredoxin + H2O

Pentalenic acid synthase is a heme-thiolate enzyme (P-450).
