BAPT
Name:
Phenylpropanoyltransferase (BAPT, TAX7)
Reaction:
baccatin III + (3R)-3-amino-3-phenylpropanoyl-CoA → N-debenzoyl-(3'-RS)-2'-deoxytaxol + coenzyme A
Km:
5.6 uM for (3R)-3-amino-3-phenylpropanoyl-CoA; 68 uM for baccatin III; 2.4 uM for baccatin III and 4.9 uM beta-phenylalanoyl-CoA (Thornburg, 2015)
Kcat:
0.0583 ± 0.0010 s-1 (Thornburg, 2015)
Enzyme Description:
BAPT is the enzyme that adds the C13 Taxol side chain partially formed to the Taxol backbone. It makes use of
CoA chemistry to add the side chain to the 13’ hydroxyl group of baccatin III.

TAX10
Name:
3'-N-debenzoyl-2'-deoxytaxol N-benzoyltransferase (TAX10, DBTNBT)
Reaction:
N-debenzoyl-(3'-RS)-taxol + benzoyl-CoA → Taxol + CoA + H+
Km:
420 uM for N-debenzoyl-(3'-RS)-taxol; 400 uM for benzoyl-CoA (Walker, Long, & Croteau, 2002)
Kcat:
1.5 ± 0.3 s-1 (Walker, Long, & Croteau, 2002)
Enzyme Description:
The final step of the Taxol biosynthesis pathway is the addition of another benzoyl ring to the Taxol C13 side
chain. It makes use of a second benzoyl-CoA from the BadA enzyme production and makes use of the same
chemistry but with different substrate specificity for the later Taxol intermediate.
