UniProt functional annotation for P83823

UniProt code: P83823.

Organism: Thermus thermophilus.
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Deinococcus-Thermus; Deinococci; Thermales; Thermaceae; Thermus.
 
Function: Catalyzes the gamma-elimination of phosphate from L- phosphohomoserine and the beta-addition of water to produce L- threonine. {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00003648, ECO:0000256|PIRNR:PIRNR038945}.
 
Catalytic activity: Reaction=H2O + O-phospho-L-homoserine = L-threonine + phosphate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:10840, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:43474, ChEBI:CHEBI:57590, ChEBI:CHEBI:57926; EC=4.2.3.1; Evidence={ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00000051, ECO:0000256|PIRNR:PIRNR038945};
Cofactor: Name=pyridoxal 5'-phosphate; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:597326; Evidence={ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00001933, ECO:0000256|PIRNR:PIRNR038945, ECO:0000256|PIRSR:PIRSR038945-1};
Pathway: Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-threonine biosynthesis; L-threonine from L-aspartate: step 5/5. {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00004979, ECO:0000256|PIRNR:PIRNR038945}.
Similarity: Belongs to the threonine synthase family. {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00005517, ECO:0000256|PIRNR:PIRNR038945}.
