The enzyme D-fuconate dehydratase (EC 4.2.1.67) catalyzes the chemical reaction.[1]
- D-fuconate [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] 2-dehydro-3-deoxy-D-fuconate + H2O
This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the hydro-lyases, which cleave carbon-oxygen bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is D-fuconate hydro-lyase (2-dehydro-3-deoxy-D-fuconate-forming). This enzyme is also called D-fuconate hydro-lyase. This enzyme participates in fructose and mannose metabolism.
