| UniProt functional annotation for P9WKK9 | |||
| UniProt code: P9WKK9. |
| Organism: | Mycobacterium tuberculosis (strain ATCC 25618 / H37Rv). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Actinobacteria; Corynebacteriales; Mycobacteriaceae; Mycobacterium; Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. | |
| Function: | Catalyzes the oxidation of 3-carboxy-2-hydroxy-4- methylpentanoate (3-isopropylmalate) to 3-carboxy-4-methyl-2- oxopentanoate. The product decarboxylates to 4-methyl-2 oxopentanoate. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=(2R,3S)-3-isopropylmalate + NAD(+) = 4-methyl-2-oxopentanoate + CO2 + NADH; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:32271, ChEBI:CHEBI:16526, ChEBI:CHEBI:17865, ChEBI:CHEBI:35121, ChEBI:CHEBI:57540, ChEBI:CHEBI:57945; EC=1.1.1.85; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:18420; Evidence={ECO:0000250}; Name=Mn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29035; Evidence={ECO:0000250}; Note=Binds 1 Mg(2+) or Mn(2+) ion per subunit. {ECO:0000250}; | |
| Pathway: | Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-leucine biosynthesis; L-leucine from 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate: step 3/4. | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15663922}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the isocitrate and isopropylmalate dehydrogenases family. LeuB type 2 subfamily. {ECO:0000305}. | |
