General annotation (Comments)

Function

1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate synthase (ACS) enzymes catalyze the conversion of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) into 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC), a direct precursor of ethylene.

Catalytic activity

S-adenosyl-L-methionine = 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate + methylthioadenosine.

Cofactor

Pyridoxal phosphate.

Pathway

Alkene biosynthesis; ethylene biosynthesis via S-adenosyl-L-methionine; ethylene from S-adenosyl-L-methionine: step 1/2.

Subunit structure

Homodimer and heterodimer. In vivo, the relevance of heterodimerization with other ACS enzymes is however unsure. Ref.3

Induction

Hormones, such as auxin, environmental factors, such as mechanical wounding and a number of chemicals.

Post-translational modification

Phosphorylated on Ser 460; phosphorylation may regulate its turnover. Ref.5

May be processed at its C-terminus.

Miscellaneous

The stability of ACS proteins, and the regulation of such stability, play a central role in ethylene biosynthesis.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the class-I pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family.

Mutagenesis2781K → A: Loss of function; when expressed alone in E.Coli. Partially complemented; when coexpressed with another ACS2 protein mutated on Y-72. Ref.3
Mutagenesis2861R → L: Loss of function; due to a strong reduction in both substrate and pyridoxal phosphate binding. Ref.4
