ENZYME entry: EC 6.3.2.36
| Accepted Name |
|---|
| 4-phosphopantoate--beta-alanine ligase.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
|---|
| Phosphopantothenate synthetase. |
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| ATP + (R)-4-phosphopantoate + beta-alanine <=> AMP + diphosphate + (R)-4'-phosphopantothenate |
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- The conversion of (R)-pantoate to (R)-4'-phosphopantothenate is part
of the pathway leading to biosynthesis of 4'-phosphopantetheine,
an essential cofactor of coenzyme A and acyl-carrier protein.
- In bacteria and eukaryotes this conversion is performed by
condensation with beta-alanine, followed by phosphorylation
(EC 6.3.2.1 and EC 2.7.1.33, respectively).
- In archaea the order of these two steps is reversed,
and phosphorylation precedes condensation with beta-alanine.
- The two archaeal enzymes that catalyze this conversion are
EC 2.7.1.169 and this enzyme.
