General annotation (Comments)

Function

Folate-dependent enzyme, that displays both transferase and deaminase activity. Serves to channel one-carbon units from formiminoglutamate to the folate pool By similarity. Ref.5

Binds and promotes bundling of vimentin filaments originating from the Golgi. Ref.5

Catalytic activity

5-formimidoyltetrahydrofolate + L-glutamate = tetrahydrofolate + N-formimidoyl-L-glutamate.

5-formyltetrahydrofolate + L-glutamate = tetrahydrofolate + N-formyl-L-glutamate.

5-formimidoyltetrahydrofolate = 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate + NH3.

Cofactor

Pyridoxal phosphate.

Pathway

Amino-acid degradation; L-histidine degradation into L-glutamate; L-glutamate from N-formimidoyl-L-glutamate (transferase route): step 1/1.

One-carbon metabolism; tetrahydrofolate interconversion.

Subunit structure

Homooctamer, including four polyglutamate binding sites. The subunits are arranged as a tetramer of dimers, and form a planar ring-shaped structure. Ref.6 Ref.7

Subcellular location

Cytoplasmcytoskeletoncentrosomecentriole By similarity. Golgi apparatus. Note: More abundantly located around the mother centriole By similarity. Ref.4 Ref.5

Tissue specificity

Liver.

Sequence similarities

In the C-terminal section; belongs to the cyclodeaminase/cyclohydrolase family.

In the N-terminal section; belongs to the formiminotransferase family.
