General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes two steps in the biosynthesis of coenzyme A. In the first step cysteine is conjugated to 4'-phosphopantothenate to form 4-phosphopantothenoylcysteine, in the latter compound is decarboxylated to form 4'-phosphopantotheine.

Catalytic activity

N-((R)-4'-phosphopantothenoyl)-L-cysteine = pantotheine 4'-phosphate + CO2.

CTP + (R)-4'-phosphopantothenate + L-cysteine = CMP + PPi + N-((R)-4'-phosphopantothenoyl)-L-cysteine.

Cofactor

Magnesium.

Binds 1 FMN per subunit.

Pathway

Cofactor biosynthesis; coenzyme A biosynthesis; CoA from (R)-pantothenate: step 2/5.

Cofactor biosynthesis; coenzyme A biosynthesis; CoA from (R)-pantothenate: step 3/5.

Subunit structure

Homododecamer, the CoaB domains form homodimers.

Sequence similarities

In the N-terminal section; belongs to the HFCD (homo-oligomeric flavin containing Cys decarboxylase) superfamily.

In the C-terminal section; belongs to the PPC synthetase family.

Sequence caution

The sequence AAA61992.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation. Translation N-terminally shortened.
