| UniProt functional annotation for Q6GIL8 | |||
| UniProt code: Q6GIL8. |
| Organism: | Staphylococcus aureus (strain MRSA252). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Firmicutes; Bacilli; Bacillales; Staphylococcaceae; Staphylococcus. | |
| Function: | Catalyzes the oxidative phosphorylation of glyceraldehyde 3- phosphate (G3P) to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) using the cofactor NAD. The first reaction step involves the formation of a hemiacetal intermediate between G3P and a cysteine residue, and this hemiacetal intermediate is then oxidized to a thioester, with concomitant reduction of NAD to NADH. The reduced NADH is then exchanged with the second NAD, and the thioester is attacked by a nucleophilic inorganic phosphate to produce BPG. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20620151}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate + NAD(+) + phosphate = (2R)-3- phospho-glyceroyl phosphate + H(+) + NADH; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:10300, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:43474, ChEBI:CHEBI:57540, ChEBI:CHEBI:57604, ChEBI:CHEBI:57945, ChEBI:CHEBI:59776; EC=1.2.1.12; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:20620151}; | |
