Functional Family Thiamine thiazole synthase

Enzyme Information

2.4.2.59
Sulfide-dependent adenosine diphosphate thiazole synthase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q58018
NAD(+) + glycine + sulfide = nicotinamide + ADP-5-ethyl-4-methylthiazole- 2-carboxylate + 3 H(2)O.
-!- This iron dependent enzyme, found in most archaea, is involved in the biosynthesis of thiamine phosphate. -!- The homologous enzyme from plants and fungi (EC 2.4.2.60) uses an intrinsic cysteine as sulfur donor and, unlike the archaeal enzyme, is a single turn-over enzyme.
