Cofactor

Cofactor Comment Organism Structure
pyruvoyl cofactor dependent on. Pathway for the formation of the pyruvoyl-dependent cofactor in ADC: the beta-hydroxyl of Ser25 attacks the carbonyl of the previous amino-acid residue (i) to form an oxyoxazolidine intermediate, which decomposes (ii) to form an ester intermediate. E1cB elimination (iii) forms a N-terminal dehydroalanyl residue which is hydrolysed (iv) to form the pyruvoyl cofactor (the alpha'-chain). The ester intermediate can also be hydrolysed to yield the inactive alpha'-chain Escherichia coli

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism the enzyme catalyzes the first step in the biosynthetic pathway of pantothenate and coenzyme A, pathway overview Escherichia coli
additional information role for Thr57 in the activation of the enzyme, its first role is that it acts as a general acid to support the formation of the ester intermediate by supporting the formation of the negative charge in the oxyoxazolidine intermediate, the second role is that after formation of the ester intermediate it acts as a general base to deprotonate the alpha-proton of Ser25, leading to chain cleavage and the formation of a dehydroalanine residue. Neither Tyr58 nor Tyr22 is required for the activation reaction, overview Escherichia coli
physiological function aspartate alpha-decarboxylase is a pyruvoyl-dependent decarboxylase required for the production of beta-alanine in the bacterial pantothenate (vitamin B5) biosynthesis pathway Escherichia coli
