General annotation (Comments)

Function

Involved in tetrahydrobiopterin biosynthesis. Seems to both prevent the formation of 7-pterins and accelerate the formation of quinonoid-BH2. Coactivator for HNF1A-dependent transcription. Regulates the dimerization of homeodomain protein HNF1A and enhances its transcriptional activity.

Catalytic activity

(6R)-6-(L-erythro-1,2-dihydroxypropyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4a-hydroxypterin = (6R)-6-(L-erythro-1,2-dihydroxypropyl)-7,8-dihydro-6H-pterin + H2O.

Subunit structure

Homotetramer and homodimer. Heterotetramer with HNF1A; formed by a dimer of dimers By similarity.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note: Cytoplasmic and/or nuclear.

Involvement in disease

Defects in PCBD1 are the cause of BH4-deficient hyperphenylalaninemia type D (HPABH4D) [MIM:264070]; also known as hyperphenylalaninemia with primapterinuria. HPABH4D is characterized by the excretion of 7-substituted pterins in the urine of affected patients. Ref.8 Ref.9

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the pterin-4-alpha-carbinolamine dehydratase family.
