| Comments |
A polyketide synthase from the plant Curcuma longa (turmeric). Three isoforms exist, CURS1, CURS2 and CURS3. While CURS1 and CURS2 prefer feruloyl-CoA as a starter substrate (cf. EC 2.3.1.217, curcumin synthase), CURS3 can accept 4-coumaroyl-CoA equally well [1]. |

| Reactions |
(1) 4-coumaroyl-CoA + feruloylacetyl-CoA + H(2)O = 2 CoA + demethoxycurcumin + CO(2). (2) 4-coumaroyl-CoA + (4-coumaroyl)acetyl-CoA + H(2)O = 2 CoA + bisdemethoxycurcumin + CO(2). |
