EC 4.1.99.12 Details
EC number
4.1.99.12
Accepted name
3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone-4-phosphate synthase
Reaction
D-ribulose 5-phosphate = formate + L-3,4-dihydroxybutan-2-one 4-phosphate
Other name(s)
DHBP synthase, L-3,4-dihydroxybutan-2-one-4-phosphate synthase
Systematic name
D-ribulose 5-phosphate formate-lyase (L-3,4-dihydroxybutan-2-one 4-phosphate-forming)
Comment
Requires a divalent cation, preferably Mg2+, for activity [1]. The reaction involves an intramolecular skeletal rearrangement, with the bonds in D-ribulose 5-phosphate that connect C-3 and C-5 to C-4 being broken, C-4 being removed as formate and reconnection of C-3 and C-5 [1]. The phosphorylated four-carbon product (L-3,4-dihydroxybutan-2-one 4-phosphate) is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of riboflavin [1].
