| Accepted name: |
L-glutamyl-[BtrI acyl-carrier protein] decarboxylase |
| Reaction: |
L-glutamyl-[BtrI acyl-carrier protein] = 4-amino butanoyl-[BtrI acyl-carrier protein] + CO2 |
| Other name(s): |
btrK (gene name) |
| Systematic name: |
L-glutamyl-[BtrI acyl-carrier protein] carboxy-lyase |
| Comments: |
Binds pyridoxal 5′-phosphate. Catalyses a step in the biosynthesis of the side chain of the aminoglycoside antibiotics of the butirosin family. Has very low activity with substrates not bound to an acyl-carrier protein. |
