| ||||||||||||
Structural highlights
FunctionBTRK_NIACI Pyridoxal phosphate-dependent decarboxylase that catalyzes 1 step in the biosynthesis of the side chain of the aminoglycoside antibiotics in the biosynthetic pathway of butirosin. Able to decarboxylate L-ornithine, L-arginine, L-lysine, but not L-glutamate or any D-amino acids. Has low activity with substrates not bound to an acyl-carrier protein.[1] References
