| UniProt functional annotation for P37613 | |||
| UniProt code: P37613. |
| Organism: | Escherichia coli (strain K12). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia. | |
| Function: | Controls both the activation and catalytic activity of PanD in a coenzyme A (CoA)-dependent fashion. Binding of CoA or a derivative to PanZ leads to interaction with PanD, which promotes the processing and activation of pro-PanD, and subsequent substrate-mediated inhibition of the active form of PanD (PubMed:23170229, PubMed:25910242). Inhibition of PanD activity is probably the primary metabolic role of PanZ, allowing negative feedback regulation of pantothenate biosynthesis by CoA (PubMed:25910242). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23170229, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25910242}. | |
| Activity regulation: | Activation of PanD processing occurs even at low CoA concentrations. In contrast, full inhibition of PanD catalytic activity only occurs at sufficiently high CoA concentrations. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25910242}. | |
| Subunit: | Interacts with PanD in the presence of CoA (PubMed:23170229, PubMed:22940551, PubMed:25910242). Forms a heterooctameric complex composed of four PanD subunits and four PanZ subunits (PubMed:22940551, PubMed:25910242). Monomer in solution (PubMed:22940551). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22940551, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23170229, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25910242}. | |
| Disruption phenotype: | Deletion mutants are deficient in the biosynthetic pathway for pantothenate. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23170229}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the PanZ/PanM family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_02018, ECO:0000305}. | |
