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 |
| Comments: |
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. |
