| UniProt functional annotation for Q9ZGH4 | |||
| UniProt code: Q9ZGH4. |
| Organism: | Streptomyces venezuelae. | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Actinobacteria; Streptomycetales; Streptomycetaceae; Streptomyces. | |
| Function: | Involved in the biosynthesis of dTDP-alpha-D-desosamine, a sugar found in several bacterial macrolide antibiotics. Catalyzes the reversible transfer of the amino group from L-glutamate to the C-3 position of dTDP-3-keto-4,6-deoxyglucose to yield dTDP-3-amino-3,4,6- trideoxyglucose. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:17456741}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=2-oxoglutarate + dTDP-3-amino-3,4,6-trideoxy-alpha-D-glucose = dTDP-3-dehydro-4,6-dideoxy-alpha-D-glucose + L-glutamate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:39907, ChEBI:CHEBI:16810, ChEBI:CHEBI:29985, ChEBI:CHEBI:63262, ChEBI:CHEBI:76280; EC=2.6.1.106; Evidence={ECO:0000305|PubMed:17456741}; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=pyridoxal 5'-phosphate; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:597326; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:17456741}; | |
| Pathway: | Antibiotic biosynthesis. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17456741}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the degT/dnrJ/eryC1 family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
