FunFam 205: Non-haem bromoperoxidase BPO-A2

There are 1 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
Pimeloyl-[acyl-carrier protein] methyl ester esterase. [EC: 3.1.1.85]
Pimeloyl-[acyl-carrier protein] methyl ester + H(2)O = pimeloyl-[acyl- carrier protein] + methanol.
  • Involved in biotin biosynthesis in Gram-negative bacteria.
  • The enzyme exhibits carboxylesterase activity, particularly toward substrates with short acyl chains.
  • Even though the enzyme can interact with coenzyme A thioesters, the in vivo role of the enzyme is to hydrolyze the methyl ester of pimeloyl-[acyl carrier protein], terminating the part of the biotin biosynthesis pathway that is catalyzed by the fatty acid elongation enzymes.
