| UniProt functional annotation for Q5SJF8 | |||
| UniProt code: Q5SJF8. |
| Organism: | Thermus thermophilus (strain ATCC 27634 / DSM 579 / HB8). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Deinococcus-Thermus; Deinococci; Thermales; Thermaceae; Thermus. | |
| Function: | Involved in the biosynthesis of the chorismate, which leads to the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids. Catalyzes the reversible NADPH linked reduction of 3-dehydroshikimate (DHSA) to yield shikimate (SA). {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00222}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=NADP(+) + shikimate = 3-dehydroshikimate + H(+) + NADPH; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:17737, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:16630, ChEBI:CHEBI:36208, ChEBI:CHEBI:57783, ChEBI:CHEBI:58349; EC=1.1.1.25; Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00222}; | |
| Pathway: | Metabolic intermediate biosynthesis; chorismate biosynthesis; chorismate from D-erythrose 4-phosphate and phosphoenolpyruvate: step 4/7. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00222}. | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00222, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17825835}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the shikimate dehydrogenase family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00222}. | |
