UniProt functional annotation for P0A6T5

UniProt code: P0A6T5.

Organism: Escherichia coli (strain K12).
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia.
 
Catalytic activity: Reaction=GTP + H2O = 7,8-dihydroneopterin 3'-triphosphate + formate + H(+); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:17473, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:15740, ChEBI:CHEBI:37565, ChEBI:CHEBI:58462; EC=3.5.4.16;
Activity regulation: Allosteric enzyme. Activity is modulated by K(+), divalent cations, UTP, and tetrahydrobiopterin. Tetrahydrobiopterin is an inhibitor of this enzyme.
Pathway: Cofactor biosynthesis; 7,8-dihydroneopterin triphosphate biosynthesis; 7,8-dihydroneopterin triphosphate from GTP: step 1/1.
Subunit: Toroid-shaped homodecamer, composed of two pentamers of five dimers. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11087827, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12297008}.
Similarity: Belongs to the GTP cyclohydrolase I family. {ECO:0000305}.
