Function
HPRK_MYCPN Is a metabolite-sensitive enzyme that catalyzes the ATP-as well as probably the pyrophosphate-dependent phosphorylation of Ser-47 in HPr, a phosphocarrier protein of the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS). HprK/P also catalyzes the pyrophosphate-producing, inorganic phosphate-dependent dephosphorylation (phosphorolysis) of seryl-phosphorylated HPr (P-Ser-HPr). The regulatory role of HPrK/P in the physiology of M.pneumoniae is not known yet.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01249]
