General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the conversion of D-ribulose 5-phosphate to formate and 3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone 4-phosphate By similarity. HAMAP MF_01283

Catalyzes the conversion of GTP to 2,5-diamino-6-ribosylamino-4(3H)-pyrimidinone 5'-phosphate (DARP), formate and pyrophosphate By similarity. HAMAP MF_01283

Catalytic activity

D-ribulose 5-phosphate = formate + L-3,4-dihydroxybutan-2-one 4-phosphate. HAMAP MF_01283

GTP + 3 H2O = formate + 2,5-diamino-6-hydroxy-4-(5-phospho-D-ribosylamino)pyrimidine + diphosphate. HAMAP MF_01283

Cofactor

Binds 2 divalent metal cations per subunit. Magnesium or manganese By similarity.

Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit By similarity. HAMAP MF_01283

Pathway

Cofactor biosynthesis; riboflavin biosynthesis; 2-hydroxy-3-oxobutyl phosphate from D-ribulose 5-phosphate: step 1/1. HAMAP MF_01283
