ENTRY       EC 4.6.1.4
NAME        Chorismate synthase
CLASS       Lyases
            Phosphorus-oxygen lyases
SYSNAME     5-O-(1-Carboxyvinyl)-3-phosphoshikimate phosphate-lyase
REACTION    5-O-(1-Carboxyvinyl)-3-phosphoshikimate = Chorismate +
            Orthophosphate
SUBSTRATE   5-O-(1-Carboxyvinyl)-3-phosphoshikimate
PRODUCT     Chorismate
            Orthophosphate
COMMENT     Shikimate is numbered so that the double-bond is between C-1 and
            C-2, but some earlier papers numbered the ring in the reverse
            direction.
