EC 3.1.3.87 Details
EC number
3.1.3.87
Accepted name
2-hydroxy-3-keto-5-methylthiopentenyl-1-phosphate phosphatase
Reaction
2-hydroxy-5-(methylsulfanyl)-3-oxopent-1-en-1-yl phosphate + H2O = 1,2-dihydroxy-5-(methylsulfanyl)pent-1-en-3-one + phosphate
Other name(s)
HK-MTPenyl-1-P phosphatase, MtnX, YkrX, 2-hydroxy-5-(methylthio)-3-oxopent-1-enyl phosphate phosphohydrolase, 2-hydroxy-5-(methylsulfanyl)-3-oxopent-1-enyl phosphate phosphohydrolase
Systematic name
2-hydroxy-5-(methylsulfanyl)-3-oxopent-1-en-1-yl phosphate phosphohydrolase
Comment
The enzyme participates in the methionine salvage pathway in Bacillus subtilis [2]. In some species a single bifunctional enzyme, EC 3.1.3.77, acireductone synthase, catalyses both this reaction and EC 5.3.2.5, 2,3-diketo-5-methylthiopentyl-1-phosphate enolase [1].
