1,2,3,5-tetrahydroxybenzene:1,2,3-trihydroxybenzene hydroxytransferase

1,2,3,5-tetrahydroxybenzene + 1,2,3-trihydroxybenzene = 1,3,5-trihydroxybenzene + 1,2,3,5-tetrahydroxybenzene [RN:R04297]

1,2,3-trihydroxybenzene [CPD:C01108]

1,2,3,5-Tetrahydroxybenzene acts as a co-substrate for the conversion of pyrogallol into phloroglucinol, and for a number of similar isomerizations. The enzyme is provisionally listed here, but might be considered as the basis for a new class in the transferases, analogous to the aminotransferases.
