IPR000926

Description

IPR000926 is a GTP cyclohydrolase II, RibA.

<p>GTP cyclohydrolase II (also known as ribA) catalyses the first committed step in the biosynthesis of riboflavin (vitamin b2). The enzyme converts GTP to 2,5-diamino-6-beta-ribosyl-4(3H)-pyrimidinone 5'-phosphate (APy), formate and pyrophosphate, and requires magnesium as a cofactor. In numerous bacteria and in plants, GTP cyclohydrolase II occurs in the C-terminal of a bifunctional enzyme known as ribBA, which also comprises an N-terminal 3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone 4-phosphate synthase (DHBP_synthase, also known as RibB) ([interpro:IPR000422]). RibB catalyses the conversion of D-ribulose 5-phosphate to formate and 3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone 4-phosphate [[cite:PUB00076431]].</p> <p>A paralogous protein is encoded in the genome of Streptomyces coelicolor, which converts GTP to 2-amino-5-formylamino-6-ribosylamino-4(3H)-pyrimidinone 5'-phosphate (FAPy), an activity that has otherwise been reported for unrelated GTP cyclohydrolases III [[cite:PUB00080016]].</p>
