Sumario: | Terpenoids and their derivatives are collectively known as the terpenome and are the largest class of natural products, whose biosynthesis refers to various kinds of enzymes. To date, there is no terpenome-related enzyme database, which is a desire for enzyme mining, metabolic engineering and discovery of new natural products related to terpenoids. In this work, we have constructed a comprehensive database called TeroENZ (http://terokit.qmclab.com/browse_enz.html) containing 13 462 enzymes involved in the terpenoid biosynthetic pathway, covering 2541 species and 4293 reactions reported in the literature and public databases. At the same time, we classify enzymes according to their catalytic reactions into cyclase, oxidoreductase, transferase, and so on, and also make a classification according to species. This meticulous classification is beneficial for users as it can be retrieved and downloaded conveniently. We also provide a computational module for isozyme prediction. Moreover, a module named TeroMAP (http://terokit.qmclab.com/browse_rxn.html) is also constructed to organize all available terpenoid enzymatic reactions into an interactive network by interfacing with the previously established database of terpenoid compounds, TeroMOL. Finally, all these databases and modules are integrated into the web server TeroKit (http://terokit.qmclab.com/) to shed light on the field of terpenoid research.
