Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, D-gluconate, and two products, 2-dehydro-3-deoxy-D-gluconate and 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-gluconate hydro-lyase (2-dehydro-3-deoxy-D-gluconate-forming). Other names in common use include D-gluconate dehydratase, and D-gluconate hydro-lyase. This enzyme participates in pentose phosphate pathway.
Structural studies
As of late 2007, only one structure has been solved for this class of enzymes, with the PDB accession code 1QJ4.
gollark: It allocates waaaay more objects for no apparent reason in newer versions.
gollark: Extra content isn't why it gets laggier. The code just gets worse.
gollark: This is a bad argument. It is entirely possible to know about some products without having them.
gollark: Some poorly designed package managers pull from local repos or public ones depending on which copy has a greater version.
gollark: They just use newer versions mostly. Although I think misspelling packages is also a common attack.
