Phosphomethylpyrimidine synthase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q9A6Q5
5-amino-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = 4-amino-2-methyl-5-(phosphomethyl)pyrimidine + 5'-deoxyadenosine + L-methionine + formate + CO.
-!- Binds a [4Fe-4S] cluster that is coordinated by 3 cysteines and an exchangeable S-adenosyl-L-methionine molecule. -!- The first stage of catalysis is reduction of the S-adenosyl-L- methionine to produce L-methionine and a 5'-deoxyadenosin-5'-yl radical that is crucial for the conversion of the substrate. -!- Part of the pathway for thiamine biosynthesis.
