General annotation (Comments)

Function

Probably catalyzes the hydrolysis of L-ascorbate-6-P into 3-keto-L-gulonate-6-P. Is essential for L-ascorbate utilization under anaerobic conditions. Also shows phosphodiesterase activity, hydrolyzing phosphodiester bond in the artificial chromogenic substrate bis-p-nitrophenyl phosphate (bis-pNPP). Ref.5 Ref.7

Catalytic activity

L-ascorbate 6-phosphate + H2O = 3-dehydro-L-gulonate 6-phosphate. HAMAP-Rule MF_01266

Cofactor

A divalent metal cation Potential.

Pathway

Cofactor degradation; L-ascorbate degradation; D-xylulose 5-phosphate from L-ascorbate: step 1/4. HAMAP-Rule MF_01266

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm Probable HAMAP-Rule MF_01266.

Induction

Induced by L-ascorbate. Repressed by UlaR. Ref.4 Ref.6

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the UlaG family.

Sequence caution

The sequence AAA97088.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation. Translation N-terminally shortened.
