Function

PAM_TAXWC Phenylalanine aminomutase that catalyzes the rearrangement of L-phenylalanine to R-beta-phenylalanine. Catalyzes the first commited step in the biosynthesis of the side chain of the alkaloid taxol (paclitaxel), a widely-used compound with antitumor activity. Has also low phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity and can catalyze the amination of trans-cinnamate.[1] [2] [3]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Turn to switch: A mutant of phenylalanine aminomutase was engineered that can catalyze the regioselective amination of cinnamate derivatives (see scheme, red) to, for example, beta-amino acids. This regioselectivity, along with the X-ray crystal structures, suggests two distinct carboxylate binding modes differentiated by C(beta)-C(ipso) bond rotation, which determines if beta- (see scheme) or alpha-addition takes place.
