UniProt functional annotation for Q8ZNF3

UniProt code: Q8ZNF3.

Organism: Salmonella typhimurium (strain LT2 / SGSC1412 / ATCC 700720).
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Salmonella.
 
Function: Catalyzes the conversion of UDP-4-keto-arabinose (UDP-Ara4O) to UDP-4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose (UDP-L-Ara4N) (PubMed:12429098, PubMed:24460375). The modified arabinose is attached to lipid A and is required for resistance to polymyxin and cationic antimicrobial peptides (By similarity). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12429098, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24460375}.
 
Catalytic activity: Reaction=2-oxoglutarate + UDP-4-amino-4-deoxy-beta-L-arabinose = L- glutamate + UDP-beta-L-threo-pentopyranos-4-ulose; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:24710, ChEBI:CHEBI:16810, ChEBI:CHEBI:29985, ChEBI:CHEBI:58708, ChEBI:CHEBI:58710; EC=2.6.1.87; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:12429098};
Cofactor: Name=pyridoxal 5'-phosphate; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:597326; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:12429098};
Activity regulation: Inhibited by L-cycloserine. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12429098}.
Pathway: Nucleotide-sugar biosynthesis; UDP-4-deoxy-4-formamido-beta-L- arabinose biosynthesis; UDP-4-deoxy-4-formamido-beta-L-arabinose from UDP-alpha-D-glucuronate: step 2/3.
Pathway: Bacterial outer membrane biogenesis; lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis.
Subunit: Homodimer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12429098, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24460375}.
Induction: Induced by BasR. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10480935}.
Similarity: Belongs to the DegT/DnrJ/EryC1 family. ArnB subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
