UniProt functional annotation for A2RJT9

UniProt codes: A2RJT9, P54321.

Organism: Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris (strain MG1363).
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Firmicutes; Bacilli; Lactobacillales; Streptococcaceae; Lactococcus.
 
Function: Catalyzes the conversion of dihydroorotate to orotate with fumarate as the electron acceptor. Molecular oxygen can replace fumarate in vitro, but cannot use NAD(+) as an electron acceptor. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8021180}.
 
Catalytic activity: Reaction=(S)-dihydroorotate + fumarate = orotate + succinate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:30059, ChEBI:CHEBI:29806, ChEBI:CHEBI:30031, ChEBI:CHEBI:30839, ChEBI:CHEBI:30864; EC=1.3.98.1; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:8021180};
Cofactor: Name=FMN; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:58210; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:9032071, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9655329}; Note=Binds 1 FMN per subunit. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9032071, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9655329};
Biophysicochemical properties: Kinetic parameters: KM=18 uM for dihydroorotate {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12732650}; KM=250 uM for fumarate {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12732650}; Vmax=18.6 umol/min/mg enzyme {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12732650};
Pathway: Pyrimidine metabolism; UMP biosynthesis via de novo pathway.
Subunit: Homodimer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9032071, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9655329}.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}.
Similarity: Belongs to the dihydroorotate dehydrogenase family. Type 1 subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
