EC 2.7.1.161 Details
EC number
2.7.1.161
Accepted name
CTP-dependent riboflavin kinase
Reaction
CTP + riboflavin = CDP + FMN
Other name(s)
Methanocaldococcus jannaschii Mj0056, Mj0056
Systematic name
CTP:riboflavin 5′-phosphotransferase
Comment
This archaeal enzyme differs from EC 2.7.1.26, riboflavin kinase, in using CTP as the donor nucleotide. UTP, but not ATP or GTP, can also act as a phosphate donor but it is at least an order of magnitude less efficient than CTP.
