Names and origin

Protein namesRecommended name:
L-arabinose isomerase

EC=5.3.1.4
Gene names
Name:araA
Ordered Locus Names:BSU28800
OrganismBacillus subtilis
Taxonomic identifier1423 [NCBI]
Taxonomic lineageBacteriaFirmicutesBacillalesBacillaceaeBacillus

Protein attributes

Sequence length496 AA.
Sequence statusComplete.
Protein existenceEvidence at transcript level

General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the conversion of L-arabinose to L-ribulose By similarity. HAMAP MF_00519

Catalytic activity

L-arabinose = L-ribulose. HAMAP MF_00519

Cofactor

Binds 1 manganese ion per subunit By similarity. HAMAP MF_00519

Pathway

Carbohydrate degradation; L-arabinose degradation via L-ribulose; D-xylulose 5-phosphate from L-arabinose (bacterial route): step 1/3. HAMAP MF_00519

Induction

Transcription is repressed by glucose and by the binding of AraR to the operon promoter. L-arabinose acts as an inducer by inhibiting the binding of AraR to the DNA, thus allowing expression of the gene. Ref.5

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the arabinose isomerase family.
