| UniProt functional annotation for Q9HWH2 | |||
| UniProt code: Q9HWH2. |
| Organism: | Pseudomonas aeruginosa (strain ATCC 15692 / DSM 22644 / CIP 104116 / JCM 14847 / LMG 12228 / 1C / PRS 101 / PAO1). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Pseudomonadales; Pseudomonadaceae; Pseudomonas. | |
| Function: | Involved in the biosynthesis of pyocyanine, a blue-pigmented phenazine derivative, which plays a role in virulence. Converts phenazine-1-carboxylate (PCA) to 5-methylphenazine-1-carboxylate (5- methyl-PCA). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17253782}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=phenazine-1-carboxylate + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = 5-methyl- phenazine-1-carboxylate + S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:49112, ChEBI:CHEBI:57856, ChEBI:CHEBI:59789, ChEBI:CHEBI:62221, ChEBI:CHEBI:62248; EC=2.1.1.327; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:17253782}; | |
| Activity regulation: | In vitro, requires PhzS for activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17253782}. | |
| Pathway: | Secondary metabolite biosynthesis; pyocyanine biosynthesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17253782}. | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer in solution (PubMed:16946471, PubMed:17253782). Probably interacts transiently with PhzS (PubMed:17253782). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16946471, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17253782}. | |
| Domain: | Contains an N-terminal dimerization domain. The C-terminal region contains the S-adenosyl-L-methionine binding site. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17253782}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. Cation-independent O-methyltransferase family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU01020}. | |
