COMMENTARY hide
LITERATURE
evolution
pyruvate formate-lyase activating enzyme (PFL-AE) is a member of the large and diverse radical S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) superfamily, members of which use an iron-sulfur cluster and SAM to initiate difficult radical transformations in all kingdoms of life. Radical SAM enzymes share a common CX3CX2C motif or variation thereof, and the conserved cysteines coordinate three irons of a [4Fe-4S] cluster, while SAM coordinates the fourth iron through its amino and carboxylate moieties
malfunction
mutation of either pflB, which codes for PFL, or pflA, which codes for pyruvate formate lyase activating enzyme, results in abrogation of mixed acid fermentation on galactose, and leads to a decrease in pneumococcal virulence
