Histidine ammonia-lyase

Histidine ammonia-lyase (EC 4.3.1.3, histidase, histidinase) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the HAL gene.[5][6] It converts histidine into ammonia and urocanic acid. Its systematic name is L-histidine ammonia-lyase (urocanate-forming).

Function

Proposed autocatalytic formation of MIO cofactor in another enzyme, phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, from the tripeptide Ala-Ser-Gly by two water elimination steps.

Histidine ammonia-lyase is a cytosolic enzyme catalyzing the first reaction in histidine catabolism, the nonoxidative deamination of L-histidine to trans-urocanic acid.[5] The reaction is catalyzed by 3,5-dihydro-5-methyldiene-4H-imidazol-4-one (MIO), an electrophilic cofactor which is formed autocatalytically by cyclization of the protein backbone of the enzyme.[7]

Pathology

Mutations in the gene for histidase are associated with histidinemia and urocanic aciduria.
