| UniProt functional annotation for Q9ASY9 | |||
| UniProt code: Q9ASY9. |
| Organism: | Arabidopsis thaliana (Mouse-ear cress). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Viridiplantae; Streptophyta; Embryophyta; Tracheophyta; Spermatophyta; Magnoliopsida; eudicotyledons; Gunneridae; Pentapetalae; rosids; malvids; Brassicales; Brassicaceae; Camelineae; Arabidopsis. | |
| Function: | Involved in thiamine salvage by hydrolyzing the thiamine breakdown product 4-amino-5-aminomethyl-2-methylpyrimidine (amino-HMP) to 4-amino-5-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpyrimidine (HMP) (PubMed:25014715). Has a high formylamino-HMP amidohydrolase activity (PubMed:25014715). No activity with other thiamine degradation products such as thiamine mono- or diphosphate, oxothiamine, oxythiamine, thiamine disulfide, desthiothiamine or thiochrome as substrates (PubMed:25014715). Does not display thiaminase II activity, as it is unable to hydrolyze thiamine (PubMed:25014715). Is able to carry out two successive steps in the salvage of thiamine breakdown product, whereas two separate enzymes are required in Bacillus species (Probable). May also serve a damage pre- emption function by hydrolyzing products that would otherwise do harm (Probable). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25014715, ECO:0000305|PubMed:25014715}. | |
