Involved in the third step of the chorismate pathway, which leads to the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids. Catalyzes the cis-dehydration of 3-dehydroquinate (DHQ) and introduces the first double bond of the aromatic ring to yield 3-dehydroshikimate. The reaction involves the formation of an imine intermediate between the keto group of 3-dehydroquinate and the epsylon-amino group of Lys-170 at the active site. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-252 from salmonella typhi 3-Dehydroquinate Dehydratase, fused to His-SUMO-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in E. coli.
