FunFam 22: 3-keto-L-gulonate-6-phosphate decarboxylase UlaD

There are 4 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
3-dehydro-L-gulonate-6-phosphate decarboxylase. [EC: 4.1.1.85]
3-dehydro-L-gulonate 6-phosphate = L-xylulose 5-phosphate + CO(2).
  • Along with EC 5.1.3.22, this enzyme is involved in a pathway for the utilization of L-ascorbate by Escherichia coli.

3-hexulose-6-phosphate synthase. [EC: 4.1.2.43]
D-arabino-hex-3-ulose 6-phosphate = D-ribulose 5-phosphate + formaldehyde.
  • Specific for formaldehyde and D-ribulose 5-phosphate as substrates.
  • Ribose 5-phosphate, xylulose 5-phosphate, allulose 6-phosphate and fructose 6-phosphate cannot act as substrate.
  • This enzyme, along with EC 5.3.1.27, plays a key role in the ribulose-monophosphate cycle of formaldehyde fixation, which is present in many microorganisms that are capable of utilizing C1-compounds.
  • The hyperthermophilic and anaerobic archaeon Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3 constitutively produces a bifunctional enzyme that sequentially catalyzes the reactions of this enzyme and EC 5.3.1.27.

5,6,7,8-tetrahydromethanopterin hydro-lyase. [EC: 4.2.1.147]
5,6,7,8-tetrahydromethanopterin + formaldehyde = 5,10- methylenetetrahydromethanopterin + H(2)O.
  • Found in methylotrophic bacteria and methanogenic archaea.

Orotidine-5'-phosphate decarboxylase. [EC: 4.1.1.23]
Orotidine 5'-phosphate = UMP + CO(2).
  • The enzyme from higher eukaryotes is identical with EC 2.4.2.10.
