Abstract
Members of this family are the phenylalanine aminomutase known from taxol biosynthesis [ 1 ]. This enzyme has the MIO prosthetic group (4-methylideneimidazole-5-one), derived from an Ala-Ser-Gly motif. Other MIO enzymes include Phe, Tyr, and His ammonia-lyases. This entry serves as an exception to overrule assignments by IPR005922 for phenylalanine ammonia-lyase.
