UniProt functional annotation for P61615

UniProt code: P61615.

Organism: Saccharolobus shibatae (Sulfolobus shibatae).
Taxonomy: Archaea; Crenarchaeota; Thermoprotei; Sulfolobales; Sulfolobaceae; Saccharolobus.
 
Function: Involved in the biosynthesis of isoprenoids. Catalyzes the 1,3-allylic rearrangement of the homoallylic substrate isopentenyl (IPP) to its allylic isomer, dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP). {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00354, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19158086, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22158896, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22505674}.

Biophysicochemical properties: Kinetic parameters: KM=7.39 uM for IPP (at pH 6 and 60 degrees Celsius) {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22158896}; Note=Kcat is 29.9 sec(-1) for isomerase activity with IPP (at pH 6 and 60 degrees Celsius).;
Subunit: Homooctamer. Dimer of tetramers. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_00354, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19158086, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22158896, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22505674}.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00354}.
Similarity: Belongs to the IPP isomerase type 2 family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00354}.
