Function
DPRE2_MYCTU Component of the DprE1-DprE2 complex that catalyzes the 2-step epimerization of decaprenyl-phospho-ribose (DPR) to decaprenyl-phospho-arabinose (DPA), a key precursor that serves as the arabinose donor required for the synthesis of cell-wall arabinans (PubMed:16291675, PubMed:19299584). DprE1 catalyzes the first step of epimerization, namely FAD-dependent oxidation of the C2' hydroxyl of DPR to yield the keto intermediate decaprenyl-phospho-2'-keto-D-arabinose (DPX) (PubMed:22733761). The intermediate DPX is then transferred to DprE2 subunit of the epimerase complex, most probably through a 'substrate channel' at the interface of DprE1-DprE2 complex (PubMed:25789990). DprE2 then catalyzes the second step of epimerization, the NAD(+)-dependent reduction of DPX that leads to the formation of DPA (PubMed:22733761, PubMed:25789990). Appears to be essential for the growth and survival of M.tuberculosis (PubMed:12657046, PubMed:24517327).[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
