| Protein existence | Evidence at protein level |
General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Catalyzes the transfer of the amino group from gamma-aminobutyrate (GABA) to alpha-ketoglutarate (KG) to yield succinic semialdehyde (SSA). PuuE is important for utilization of putrescine as the sole nitrogen or carbon source. Ref.5 Ref.6 |
| Catalytic activity | 4-aminobutanoate + 2-oxoglutarate = succinate semialdehyde + L-glutamate. |
| Cofactor | Pyridoxal phosphate. |
| Enzyme regulation | Completely inhibited by succinate and low-aeration conditions. Ref.6 |
| Pathway | |
| Induction | By putrescine. Ref.6 |
| Disruption phenotype | Cells show only 35% of the wild-type activity. Ref.6 |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the class-III pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. |
| Biophysicochemical properties | Kinetic parameters: KM=0.0577 mM for SSA (at pH 7.8 and at 30 degrees Celsius) Ref.6 KM=1.57 mM for GABA (at pH 7.8 and at 30 degrees Celsius) KM=5.1 mM for KG (at pH 7.8 and at 30 degrees Celsius) KM=18 mM for L-glutamate (at pH 7.8 and at 30 degrees Celsius) pH dependence: Optimum pH is 9 for the forward reaction which is the transfer reaction of the amino group from GABA to beta-ketoglutarate, and pH 8 for the reverse reaction. |
