A new class EC 7, Translocases, has been added to the EC list. It will be part of ENZYME from release 2018_10. Read more about EC 7 here.

ENZYME entry: EC 2.7.7.2

Accepted Name
FAD synthetase.
Alternative Name(s)
FAD diphosphorylase.
FAD pyrophosphorylase.
FADS.
Flavin adenine dinucleotide synthetase.
FMN adenylyltransferase.
Reaction catalysed
ATP + FMN <=> diphosphate + FAD
Cofactor(s)
Mg(2+).
Comment(s)
  • Highly specific for ATP as phosphate donor.
  • The cofactors FMN and FAD participate in numerous processes in all organisms, including mitochondrial electron transport, photosynthesis, fatty-acid oxidation, and metabolism of vitamin B6, vitamin B12 and folates.
  • While monofunctional FAD synthetase is found in eukaryotes and in some prokaryotes, most prokaryotes have a bifunctional enzyme that exhibits both this activity and that of EC 2.7.1.26.
