EC 2.5.1.129 Details
EC number
2.5.1.129
Accepted name
flavin prenyltransferase
Reaction
prenyl phosphate + FMNH2 = prenylated FMNH2 + phosphate
Other name(s)
ubiX (gene name), PAD1 (gene name), dimethylallyl-phosphate:FMNH2 prenyltransferase
Systematic name
prenyl-phosphate:FMNH2 prenyltransferase
Comment
The enzyme produces the modified flavin cofactor prenylated FMNH2, which is required by EC 4.1.1.98, 4-hydroxy-3-polyprenylbenzoate decarboxylase, and EC 4.1.1.102, phenacrylate decarboxylase. The enzyme acts as a flavin prenyltransferase, linking a prenyl moiety to the flavin N-5 and C-6 atoms and thus adding a fourth non-aromatic ring to the flavin isoalloxazine group.
