Product Name beta-ribofuranosylphenol 5′-phosphate synthase
Example Structure Example Structure of beta-ribofuranosylphenol 5'-phosphate synthase EC#: 2.4.2.54
Synonyms 4-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)aminobenzene 5′-phosphate synthase, AF2089, beta-RFA-P synthase, beta-RFAP synthase, beta-ribofuranosylhydroxybenzene 5′-phosphate synthase, MTH0830, RFAP synthase, ribofuranosylaminobenzene 5′-phosphate synthase
EC Number 2.4.2.54
CAS Registry Number
Comments The enzyme is involved in biosynthesis of tetrahydromethanopterin in archaea. It was initially thought to use 4-aminobenzoate as a substrate, but was later shown to utilize 4-hydroxybenzoate [4]. The activity is dependent on Mg2+ or Mn2+ [1].
Cofactor Mn2+ or Mg2+
History
Reactions 5-phospho-alpha-D-ribose 1-diphosphate + 4-hydroxybenzoate = 4-(beta-D- ribofuranosyl)phenol 5′-phosphate + CO(2) + diphosphate.
