| UniProt functional annotation for P11454 | |||
| UniProt code: P11454. |
| Organism: | Escherichia coli (strain K12). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia. | |
| Function: | Activates the carboxylate group of L-serine via ATP-dependent PPi exchange reactions to the aminoacyladenylate, preparing that molecule for the final stages of enterobactin synthesis. Holo-EntF acts as the catalyst for the formation of the three amide and three ester bonds present in the cyclic (2,3-dihydroxybenzoyl)serine trimer enterobactin, using seryladenylate and acyl-holo-EntB (acylated with 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate by EntE). | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=ATP + L-serine = diphosphate + L-seryl-5'-AMP; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:28570, ChEBI:CHEBI:30616, ChEBI:CHEBI:33019, ChEBI:CHEBI:33384, ChEBI:CHEBI:61231; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=pantetheine 4'-phosphate; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:47942; Note=Binds 1 phosphopantetheine covalently.; | |
| Pathway: | Siderophore biosynthesis; enterobactin biosynthesis. | |
| Subunit: | EntB, EntD, EntE, and EntF form a multienzyme complex called enterobactin synthase. EntF acts as a catalytic monomer. | |
| Induction: | Transcriptionally regulated by iron and the fur protein. | |
| Ptm: | 4'-phosphopantetheine is transferred from CoA to a specific serine of apo-EntF by EntD. Holo-EntF so formed is then acylated with seryl- AMP. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family. EntF subfamily. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Sequence caution: | Sequence=AAB40785.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; | |
