General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the anaerobic formation of alpha-ketobutyrate and ammonia from threonine in a two-step reaction. The first step involved a dehydration of threonine and a production of enamine intermediates (aminocrotonate), which tautomerizes to its imine form (iminobutyrate). Both intermediates are unstable and short-lived. The second step is the nonenzymatic hydrolysis of the enamine/imine intermediates to form 2-ketobutyrate and free ammonia. In the low water environment of the cell, the second step is accelerated by RidA. TdcB also dehydrates serine to yield pyruvate via analogous enamine/imine intermediates. Ref.7 Ref.8 Ref.10

Catalytic activity

L-threonine = 2-oxobutanoate + NH3.

L-serine = pyruvate + NH3.

Cofactor

Pyridoxal phosphate. Ref.9

Enzyme regulation

Each protein molecule can bind up to four molecules of AMP, which act as an allosteric activator to the enzyme. The enzyme is also inhibited by alpha-keto acids and other catabolites. Ref.7 Ref.8

Pathway

Amino-acid degradation; L-threonine degradation via propanoate pathway; propanoate from L-threonine: step 1/4.

Subunit structure

In the native structure, TdcB is in a dimeric form, whereas in the TdcB-AMP complex, it exists in a tetrameric form (dimer of dimers) By similarity.

Induction

In the absence of glucose and oxygen,. Ref.7 Ref.8

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the serine/threonine dehydratase family.

Biophysicochemical properties

Kinetic parameters:

KM=0.30 µM for L-threonine (at 37 dregrees Celsius and at pH 7.8) Ref.7

KM=0.35 µM for L-serine (at 37 dregrees Celsius and at pH 7.8)
