FunFam 12: Transketolase, variant 1

Please note: GO 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.

There are 2 GO terms relating to "molecular function"

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.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Transketolase activity GO:0004802
Catalysis of the reversible transfer of a 2-carbon ketol group (CH2OH-CO-) from a ketose phosphate donor to an aldose phosphate acceptor.
 2 Q5AT29 (/RCA) Q5AT29 (/RCA)
Formaldehyde transketolase activity GO:0047896
Catalysis of the reaction: D-xylulose 5-phosphate + formaldehyde = glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate + glycerone.
 2 Q5AT29 (/RCA) Q5AT29 (/RCA)

There are 2 GO terms relating to "biological process"

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.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Xylulose metabolic process GO:0005997
The chemical reactions and pathways involving xylulose, the ketopentose threo-2-pentulose.
 2 Q5AT29 (/RCA) Q5AT29 (/RCA)
Pentose-phosphate shunt GO:0006098
The glucose-6-phosphate catabolic process in which, coupled to NADPH synthesis, glucose-6-P is oxidized with the formation of carbon dioxide (CO2) and ribulose 5-phosphate; ribulose 5-P then enters a series of reactions interconverting sugar phosphates. The pentose phosphate pathway is a major source of reducing equivalents for biosynthesis reactions and is also important for the conversion of hexoses to pentoses.
 2 Q5AT29 (/RCA) Q5AT29 (/RCA)
