General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the conversion of uracil and 5-phospho-alpha-D-ribose 1-diphosphate (PRPP) to UMP and diphosphate. Ref.2

Catalytic activity

UMP + diphosphate = uracil + 5-phospho-alpha-D-ribose 1-diphosphate. Ref.2

Cofactor

Binds 1 Mg2+ ion per subunit. The magnesium is bound as Mg-PRPP By similarity.

Enzyme regulation

Allosterically activated by GTP. Inhibited by CTP and UMP in combination. Ref.2

Pathway

Pyrimidine metabolism; UMP biosynthesis via salvage pathway; UMP from uracil: step 1/1. HAMAP MF_01218_A

Subunit structure

Homotetramer. Ref.2

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the UPRTase family.

Biophysicochemical properties

Kinetic parameters:

KM=55 µM for 5-phospho-alpha-D-ribose 1-diphosphate (in the presence of 1 mM GTP) Ref.2

KM=19 µM for 5-phospho-alpha-D-ribose 1-diphosphate (without GTP)

KM=27 µM for uracil (in the presence of 1 mM GTP)

KM=1.4 µM for uracil (without GTP)

Vmax=15.8 µmol/min/mg enzyme (in the presence of 1 mM GTP)

Vmax=0.92 µmol/min/mg enzyme (without GTP)

pH dependence:

Optimum pH is 5.0-5.6 at 60 degrees Celsius.
