Structural highlights 4nmi is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Virgibacillus salexigens. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 1.78Å Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function ECTD_VIRSA Involved in the biosynthesis of ectoine ((S)-2-methyl-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid) which is a highly soluble organic osmolyte, called compatible solute, use to avoid excessive water efflux, plasmolysis, molecular crowding of the cytoplasm, and cessation of growth in high salinity environments. Catalyzes the 2-oxoglutarate-dependent selective hydroxylation of L-ectoine to yield (4S,5S)-5-hydroxyectoine. See Also Hydroxylases 3D structures
