| UniProt functional annotation for P00344 | |||
| UniProt code: P00344. |
| Organism: | Geobacillus stearothermophilus (Bacillus stearothermophilus). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Firmicutes; Bacilli; Bacillales; Bacillaceae; Geobacillus. | |
| Function: | Catalyzes the conversion of lactate to pyruvate. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00488, ECO:0000269|PubMed:3580377, ECO:0000269|Ref.5}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=(S)-lactate + NAD(+) = H(+) + NADH + pyruvate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:23444, ChEBI:CHEBI:15361, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:16651, ChEBI:CHEBI:57540, ChEBI:CHEBI:57945; EC=1.1.1.27; Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00488, ECO:0000305|PubMed:3580377}; | |
| Activity regulation: | Allosterically activated by fructose 1,6- bisphosphate (FBP). The improvement in affinity for substrate occurs in two steps; the binding of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) to the dimer, and the dimer to tetramer conversion. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:3580377, ECO:0000269|Ref.5, ECO:0000305|PubMed:1731077}. | |
| Pathway: | Fermentation; pyruvate fermentation to lactate; (S)-lactate from pyruvate: step 1/1. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00488}. | |
| Subunit: | Exists as a dimer and a tetramer (dimer of dimers). The conversion occurs via the binding of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) to the dimer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1731077, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2330370, ECO:0000269|PubMed:3580377, ECO:0000305|Ref.5}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00488}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the LDH/MDH superfamily. LDH family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00488, ECO:0000305}. | |
