General annotation (Comments)

Function

Plays an important role in the survival and pathogenicity of P.syringae. Phaseolotoxin is a virulence factor that inhibits the catalysis of the host OTCase. Phaseolotoxin-producing bacteria do not suffer autointoxication because they possess the anabolic OTCase ArgK which can function even in the presence of phaseolotoxin. HAMAP MF_01109

Catalytic activity

Carbamoyl phosphate + L-ornithine = phosphate + L-citrulline. HAMAP MF_01109

Pathway

Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-arginine biosynthesis; L-arginine from L-ornithine and carbamoyl phosphate: step 1/3. HAMAP MF_01109

Induction

By N-sulfodiaminophosphinyl, the inorganic moiety of phaseolotoxin, at 18 degrees Celsius. Ref.4 Ref.5

Miscellaneous

Optimum pH is 8.4. HAMAP MF_01109

This enzyme is insensitive to phaseolotoxin, a potent inhibitor of OTCase. HAMAP MF_01109

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the ATCase/OTCase family.

Caution

Lacks the conserved threonine residue in position 60, which is part of the carbamoylphosphate binding site; it is replaced by a glycine residue.
