Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate + L-arginine = N2-(2-carboxyethyl)-L-arginine + phosphate the enzyme requires thiamine diphosphate and catalyses the first step in the clavulanic-acid-biosynthesis pathway, the 2-hydroxy-3-oxo group transferred from glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate is isomerized during transfer to form the 2-carboxyethyl group, detailed mechanism Streptomyces clavuligerus

Cofactor

Cofactor Comment Organism Structure
thiamine diphosphate thiamine diphosphate-dependent enzyme, the thiamine diphosphate binding region is situated across two subunits of the closely associated dimer, two binding regions per dimer, binding is facilitated by a combination of hydrogen bonding and formation of a complex with a single Mg2+ ion, mode of binding, CEAS must rely heavily on the cofactor for general acid/base catalysis Streptomyces clavuligerus
