pyridoxine 5′-phosphate synthase

1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate + 3-amino-2-oxopropyl phosphate = pyridoxine 5′-phosphate + phosphate + 2 H₂O

pyridoxine 5-phosphate phospho lyase, PNP synthase, PdxJ

1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate:3-amino-2-oxopropyl phosphate 3-amino-2-oxopropyltransferase (phosphate-hydrolysing; cyclizing)

230310-47-1

In Escherichia coli, the coenzyme pyridoxal 5′-phosphate is synthesized de novo by a pathway that involves EC 1.2.1.72 (erythrose-4-phosphate dehydrogenase), EC 1.1.1.290 (4-phosphoerythronate dehydrogenase), EC 2.6.1.52 (phosphoserine transaminase), EC 1.1.1.262 (4-hydroxythreonine-4-phosphate dehydrogenase), EC 2.6.99.2 (pyridoxine 5′-phosphate synthase) and EC 1.4.3.5 (with pyridoxine 5′-phosphate as substrate). 1-Deoxy-D-xylulose cannot replace 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate as a substrate [3].
