FunFam 120838: Tryptophan synthase, beta subunit

There are 3 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Phosphoribosylanthranilate isomerase. [EC: 5.3.1.24]
N-(5-phospho-beta-D-ribosyl)anthranilate = 1-(2-carboxyphenylamino)-1- deoxy-D-ribulose 5-phosphate.
  • In some organisms, this enzyme is part of a multifunctional protein together with one or more components of the system for biosynthesis of tryptophan (EC 2.4.2.18, EC 4.1.1.48, EC 4.1.3.27, and EC 4.2.1.20).

Indole-3-glycerol-phosphate synthase. [EC: 4.1.1.48]
1-(2-carboxyphenylamino)-1-deoxy-D-ribulose 5-phosphate = 1-C- (3-indolyl)-glycerol 3-phosphate + CO(2) + H(2)O.
  • In some organisms, this enzyme is part of a multifunctional protein together with one or more components of the system for biosynthesis of tryptophan (EC 2.4.2.18, EC 4.1.3.27, EC 4.2.1.20, and EC 5.3.1.24).

Tryptophan synthase. [EC: 4.2.1.20]
L-serine + 1-C-(indol-3-yl)glycerol 3-phosphate = L-tryptophan + D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate + H(2)O.
  • The alpha-subunit catalyzes the conversion of 1-C-(indol-3- yl)glycerol 3-phosphate to indole and D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (this reaction was listed formerly as EC 4.1.2.8).
  • The indole migrates to the beta-subunit where, in the presence of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, it is combined with L-serine to form L-tryptophan.
  • In some organisms this enzyme is part of a multifunctional protein that also includes one or more of the enzymes EC 2.4.2.18, EC 4.1.1.48, EC 4.1.3.27 and EC 5.3.1.24.
  • In thermophilic organisms, where the high temperature enhances diffusion and causes the loss of indole, a protein similar to the beta subunit can be found (EC 4.2.1.122).
  • That enzyme cannot combine with the alpha unit of EC 4.2.1.20 to form a complex.
