General annotation (Comments)

Function	Riboflavin synthase is a bifunctional enzyme complex catalyzing the formation of riboflavin from 5-amino-6-(1'-D)-ribityl-amino-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione and L-3,4-dihydrohy-2-butanone-4-phosphate via 6,7-dimethyl-8-lumazine. The alpha subunit catalyzes the dismutation of 6,7-dimethyl-8-lumazine to riboflavin and 5-amino-6-(1'-D)-ribityl-amino-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione By similarity.
Catalytic activity	2 6,7-dimethyl-8-(1-D-ribityl)lumazine = riboflavin + 4-(1-D-ribitylamino)-5-amino-2,6-dihydroxypyrimidine.
Pathway	Cofactor biosynthesis; riboflavin biosynthesis; 5-amino-6-(D-ribitylamino)uracil and riboflavin from 6,7-dimethyl-8-(1-D-ribityl)lumazine: step 1/1.
Subunit structure	Oligomer that consist of 3 alpha subunits and 60 beta subunits By similarity.
Sequence similarities	Contains 2 lumazine-binding repeats.
