Reactions

General function:

Involved in IMP cyclohydrolase activity

Specific function:

10-formyltetrahydrofolate + 5-amino-1-(5- phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamide = tetrahydrofolate + 5- formamido-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamide

metE

Locus Tag:

PA1927

Molecular weight:

86.2 kDa

Reactions

General function:

Involved in aminomethyltransferase activity

Specific function:

The glycine cleavage system catalyzes the degradation of glycine

Gene Name:

gcvT

PA5215

Molecular weight:

38.9 kDa

Reactions

General function:

Involved in 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate hydroxymethyltransferase activity

Specific function:

Catalyzes the reversible reaction in which hydroxymethyl group from 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate is tranferred onto alpha-ketoisovalerate to form ketopantoate

Gene Name:

panB

Locus Tag:

PA4729

Molecular weight:

27.9 kDa

Reactions

General function:

Involved in glycine dehydrogenase (decarboxylating) activity

Specific function:

The glycine cleavage system catalyzes the degradation of glycine. The P protein binds the alpha-amino group of glycine through its pyridoxal phosphate cofactor; CO(2) is released and the remaining methylamine moiety is then transferred to the lipoamide cofactor of the H protein

Gene Name:

gcvP

Locus Tag:

PA5213

Molecular weight:

104.7 kDa

Reactions

General function:

Involved in ATP binding

Specific function:

Catalyzes two reactions:the first one is the production of beta-formyl glycinamide ribonucleotide (GAR) from formate, ATP and beta GAR; the second, a side reaction, is the production of acetyl phosphate and ADP from acetate and ATP

Gene Name:

purT

Locus Tag:

PA3751

Molecular weight:

42.3 kDa

Reactions

General function:

Involved in hydroxymethyl-, formyl- and related transferase activity

Specific function:

Bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of UDP-glucuronic acid (UDP-GlcUA) to UDP-4-keto- arabinose (UDP-Ara4O) and the addition of a formyl group to UDP-4- amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose (UDP-L-Ara4N) to form UDP-L-4-formamido- arabinose (UDP-L-Ara4FN).
