| Function: | Catalyzes the interconversion of L-alpha-lysine and L-beta- lysine. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1329954, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1850415, ECO:0000269|PubMed:5438361}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=L-lysine = (3S)-3,6-diaminohexanoate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:19177, ChEBI:CHEBI:32551, ChEBI:CHEBI:57434; EC=5.4.3.2; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:5438361}; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=[4Fe-4S] cluster; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:49883; Note=Binds 1 [4Fe-4S] cluster per subunit. The cluster is coordinated with 3 cysteines and an exchangeable S-adenosyl-L-methionine.; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=pyridoxal 5'-phosphate; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:597326; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=Co(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:48828; Note=Binds 1 Co(2+) ion per subunit.; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105; Note=Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit.; | |
| Activity regulation: | The enzyme is activated by S-adenosyl-methionine. Activity is dependent on the levels of Fe(2+), S(2-) and Co(2+). Activity is stimulated by addition of EDTA. S-adenosylhomocysteine competitively inhibits the activity whereas 5'-methylthioadenosine is not inhibitory in the presence of S-adenosylmethionine. Competitively inhibited by 4-thialysine. Inhibited by sodium borohydride (1 mM) when added with 2 mM dithionate. Moderately inhibited by beta- mercaptoethanol (30 mM) along with dithionate. Higher concentrations of Fe(2+) partially inhibit the activity and Co(2+) at 1 mM is a strong inhibitor. Hydroxylamine, isonicotinic acid hydrazide inhibit effectively, in addition, hydrazine, D-penicillamine and D-cycloserine are also inhibitory at high concentrations. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11370852, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1850415, ECO:0000269|PubMed:5438361}. | |
