Structure of 6,7-Dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine synthase from Schizosaccharomyces pombe mutant W27Y with bound ligand 5-nitroso-6-ribitylamino-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedioneStructure of 6,7-Dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine synthase from Schizosaccharomyces pombe mutant W27Y with bound ligand 5-nitroso-6-ribitylamino-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione
Structural highlights
FunctionRIB4_SCHPO 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. Also binds riboflavin with an unexpected high affinity.[1] Evolutionary Conservation![]() Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.
