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 beta subunit catalyzes the condensation of 5-amino-6-(1'-D)-ribityl-amino-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione with L-3,4-dihydrohy-2-butanone-4-phosphate yielding 6,7-dimethyl-8-lumazine By similarity. HAMAP MF_00178

Catalytic activity

2 6,7-dimethyl-8-(1-D-ribityl)lumazine = riboflavin + 4-(1-D-ribitylamino)-5-amino-2,6-dihydroxypyrimidine. HAMAP MF_00178

Pathway

Cofactor biosynthesis; riboflavin biosynthesis; riboflavin from 2-hydroxy-3-oxobutyl phosphate and 5-amino-6-(D-ribitylamino)uracil: step 2/2. HAMAP MF_00178

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the DMRL synthase family.
