| UniProt functional annotation for Q56839 | |||
| UniProt code: Q56839. |
| Organism: | Xanthobacter autotrophicus (strain ATCC BAA-1158 / Py2). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Alphaproteobacteria; Rhizobiales; Xanthobacteraceae; Xanthobacter. | |
| Function: | Catalyzes the reductive cleavage of the thioether linkage of 2-ketopropyl-coenzyme M, and the subsequent carboxylation of the ketopropyl cleavage product, yielding the products acetoacetate and free coenzyme M. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=acetoacetate + coenzyme M + NADP(+) = 2-oxopropyl-coenzyme M + CO2 + NADPH; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:16977, ChEBI:CHEBI:13705, ChEBI:CHEBI:16526, ChEBI:CHEBI:57552, ChEBI:CHEBI:57783, ChEBI:CHEBI:58319, ChEBI:CHEBI:58349; EC=1.8.1.5; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=FAD; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:57692; Note=Binds 1 FAD per subunit.; | |
| Pathway: | Alkene metabolism; propylene degradation. | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer. Component II of the aliphatic epoxide carboxylation complex together with components I, III and IV. | |
| Miscellaneous: | The active site is a redox-active disulfide bond. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the class-I pyridine nucleotide-disulfide oxidoreductase family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
