ID 6.3.2.38 DE N(2)-citryl-N(6)-acetyl-N(6)-hydroxylysine synthase. AN N(alpha)-citryl-N(epsilon)-acetyl-N(epsilon)-hydroxylysine synthase. CA ATP + citrate + N(6)-acetyl-N(6)-hydroxy-L-lysine = AMP + diphosphate + CA H(+) + N(2)-citryl-N(6)-acetyl-N(6)-hydroxy-L-lysine. CC -!- Requires Mg(2+). CC -!- The enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of aerobactin, CC a dihydroxamate siderophore. CC -!- It belongs to a class of siderophore synthases known as type A CC nonribosomal peptide synthase-independent synthases (NIS). CC -!- Type A enzymes are responsible for the formation of amide or ester CC bonds between polyamines or amino alcohols and a prochiral carboxyl CC group of citrate. CC -!- The enzyme is believed to form an adenylate intermediate prior to CC ligation. CC -!- Formerly EC 6.3.2.27. DR Q47316, IUCA_ECOLX ; Q76BS7, IUCA_VIBMI ; //
