1-deoxy-d-xylulose-5-phosphate synthase (EC 2.2.1.7) is an enzyme in the non-mevalonate pathway that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The two substrates of this enzyme are pyruvic acid and D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. Its products are 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate and carbon dioxide.[1][2] The enzyme has been characterised from Escherichia coli[1] and a Streptomyces species.[2]
It belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring aldehyde or ketonic groups (transaldolases and transketolases, respectively). The systematic name of this enzyme class is pyruvate:d-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate acetaldehydetransferase (decarboxylating). Other names in common use include 1-deoxy-d-xylulose-5-phosphate pyruvate-lyase (carboxylating), and DXP-synthase.[3] The product of the enzyme goes on to form isopentenyl pyrophosphate which is part of the biosynthesis of steroids,[2] and other compounds such as pyridoxol.[1]
Structural studies
[edit]As of late 2007, two structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes PDB: 2O1S and PDB: 2O1X.
