ID 4.4.1.37 DE pyridinium-3,5-bisthiocarboxylic acid mononucleotide synthase. AN P2CMN sulfurtransferase. AN P2TMN synthase. AN pyridinium-3,5-biscarboxylic acid mononucleotide sulfurtransferase. CA (1) [LarE protein]-L-cysteine + ATP + pyridinium-3,5-dicarboxylate CA mononucleotide = [LarE protein]-dehydroalanine + AMP + diphosphate + H(+) CA + pyridinium-3-carboxylate-5-thiocarboxylate mononucleotide. CA (2) [LarE protein]-L-cysteine + ATP + pyridinium-3-carboxylate-5- CA thiocarboxylate mononucleotide = [LarE protein]-dehydroalanine + AMP + CA diphosphate + H(+) + pyridinium-3,5-bisthiocarboxylate mononucleotide. CC -!- This enzyme, found in Lactobacillus plantarum, is involved in the CC biosynthesis of a nickel-pincer cofactor. CC -!- The process starts when one enzyme molecule adenylates pyridinium- CC 3,5-dicarboxylate mononucleotide (P2CMN) and covalently binds the CC adenylated product to an intrinsic cysteine residue. CC -!- Next, the enzyme cleaves the carbon-sulfur bond, liberating CC pyridinium-3-carboxylate-5-thiocarboxylate mononucleotide (PCTMN) and CC leaving a 2-aminoprop-2-enoate (dehydroalanine) residue attached to CC the protein. CC -!- Since the cysteine residue is not regenerated in vivo, the enzyme is CC inactivated during the process. CC -!- A second enzyme molecule then repeats the process with PCTMN, CC adenylating it and covalently binding it to the same cysteine CC residue, followed by liberation of pyridinium-3,5-bisthiocarboxylate CC mononucleotide (P2TMN) and the inactivation of the second enzyme CC molecule.
