| UniProt functional annotation for Q56185 | |||
| UniProt code: Q56185. |
| Organism: | Streptomyces wedmorensis. | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Actinobacteria; Streptomycetales; Streptomycetaceae; Streptomyces. | |
| Function: | Non-heme-dependent dioxygenase that catalyzes the oxidative epoxidation of (S)-2-hydroxypropylphosphonate into (1R,2S)- epoxypropylphosphonate, the final step in the biosynthesis of fosfomycin antibiotic. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16015285, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16186494}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=(S)-2-hydroxypropylphosphonate + H2O2 = (1R,2S)- epoxypropylphosphonate + 2 H2O; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:10808, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:16240, ChEBI:CHEBI:62246, ChEBI:CHEBI:62247; EC=1.11.1.23; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:16015285}; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=Fe(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29033; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:16015285}; Note=Binds 1 Fe(2+) ion per subunit. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16015285}; | |
| Pathway: | Antibiotic biosynthesis; fosfomycin biosynthesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16015285, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19516340}. | |
| Subunit: | Homotetramer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16015285, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16186494, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21682308}. | |
| Miscellaneous: | Phosphinothricin tripeptide (PTT) herbicide and fosfomycin antibiotic biosynthesis pathways share early steps starting with phosphoenolpyruvate before the pathways diverge after formation of 2-hydroxyethylphosphonate (HEP). HppE is involved in fosfomycin biosynthesis after divergence of the 2 pathways. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:19516340}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the non-heme iron-dependent dioxygenase family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
