Crystal Structure of Lumazine Synthase from Aquifex aeolicus in Complex with Inhibitor: 5-(6-D-ribitylamino-2,4(1H,3H)pyrimidinedione-5-yl)-1-pentyl-phosphonic acidCrystal Structure of Lumazine Synthase from Aquifex aeolicus in Complex with Inhibitor: 5-(6-D-ribitylamino-2,4(1H,3H)pyrimidinedione-5-yl)-1-pentyl-phosphonic acid
Structural highlights
FunctionRISB_AQUAE Catalyzes the formation of 6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine by condensation of 5-amino-6-(D-ribitylamino)uracil with 3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone 4-phosphate. This is the penultimate step in the biosynthesis of riboflavin.[1] [2] Evolutionary Conservation![]() Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.
