DEFINITION OF TERMS
1. Shikimic acid or shikimate: is an important
biochemical metabolite in plants and
microorganisms.
2. Aromatic compound: is a hydrocarbon with
alternating double bonds and single bonds
between carbon atoms
3. Amino acids: are molecules containing an
amine group, a carboxylic acid group and a side
chain (specific)
4. Phenolic Compounds: are a large and diverse
group of molecules, which includes many
families of aromatic secondary metabolite in
plants.
5. Enzymes: are group of molecules that serve as
a catalyst with a high degree of specificity for
a certain substrate or class of substrates. It can
only act on one substrate or on a family of
structurally similar substrates.
MAJOR ENZYMES
1. Synthase: Joints two molecules together w/o
hydrolyzing a pyrophosphate bond.
2. Dehydratase: Removes water to create a
double bond
3. Dehydrogenase: Removes hydrogen atom from
its substrate
4. Kinase: Transfer a phosphate group from a
high-energy phosphate compound such as ATP
to its substrate.
SHIKIMIC ACID
Where this came from?
Shikimi
Illicium anisatum
Shikimic acid is a precursor for:
1. Aromatic amino acids phenylalanine
and tyrosine
2. Indole, and indole derivatives and
a.a.a tryptophan
3. Alkaloids
4. Phenylpropanoids, flavonoids,
tannins, and lignins.

Analyze this reaction, what are the other
materials involve?
FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
3-deoxy-D-arabinoheptulosonate 7phosphate (DAHP) synthase is the first
enzyme in a series of metabolic reactions
known as the shikimate pathway.
Since it is the first enzyme in the shikimate
pathway, it controls the amount of carbon
entering the pathway.

FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
3-dehydroquinate synthase is the second
enzyme of the shikimate pathway.
It catalyzes the elimination of phosphate
from DAHP to generate 3-dehydroquinate
(DHQ).
FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
3-Dehydroquinate Dehydratase (DHQD)
catalyzes the third step of the shikimate
pathway, dehydration of 3-dehydroquinate
to 3-dehydroshikimate.
FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
Shikimate-5-Dehydrogenase (SDH) The
fourth step of the shikimate pathway is the
reduction of DHS to shikimate. the reaction
is catalyzed by an NADP-dependent
shikimate dehydrogenase (SHD)
FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
Shikimate Kinase (SK)- In the fifth step of
the shikimate pathway, shikimate kinase
catalyzes the specific phosphorylation of the
3-hydroxyl group of D-shikimate to yield
shikimate 3-phosphate using ATP as a cosubtrate
FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
5-Enolpyruvylshikimate 3-Phosphate
Synthase (EPSPS) is the sixth enzyme of the
shikimate pathway. It catalyzes the reversible
formation of 5-enolpyruvyl-shikimate-3phosphate (EPSP) from shikimate 3phosphate and PEP.
FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
Chorismate Synthase (CS) The seventh and
final step in the main trunk of the shikimate
pathway is the trans-1,4 elimination of
phosphate from EPSP to yield chorismate
FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
In this reaction, the second of the three
double bonds of the benzene ring is
introduced. The reaction is catalyzed by
chorismate synthase and requires reduced
flavin for activity even though the overall
reaction is redox neutral.
FORMATION OF SHIKIMIC ACID
SHIKIMIC ACID TO AROMATIC ACID
The seven-step shikimate pathway links
the metabolism of carbohydrates to the
biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids and
many aromatic secondary metabolites,
including tetrahydrofolate and
ubiquinone.
Aromatic Amino
Acids
Aromatic Amino Acids
1. What are aromatic amino acids?
Aromatic Amino Acids are amino acids that
include an aromatic ring.
Example includes:
Phenylalanine, Tryptophan, Histidine,
Tyrosine
(but only F, W, Y can be synthesized by
Shikimate pathway)
The Aromatic Family
In plants and microorganism:
Phe, Tyr, and Trp
 Precursors are:
 PEP
 ERYTHROSE-4-PHOSPHATE
 CHORISMATE
The Starting Material
CHORISMATE
Enzymes
Isomerase is an enzyme that catalyzes the
structural rearrangement of isomers.
Mutase: catalyzes the shifting of a
functional group from one position to
another within the same molecule.
Transferase: catalyzes the transfer of
a functional group (methyl or
phosphate)from one molecule to another

PHENOLICS
These are the class of natural occuring compound
with one or more phenolic compounds or
benzene ring with –OH group.
Quercetin, a typical flavonoid, is
a natural phenol
BIOSYNTHESIS OF PHENOLICS
Most of the natural phenols
are derived from secondary
plant metabolism of the
shikimic acid pathway, malic
acid pathway or both.
