Template:STRUCTURE 1b66

6-PYRUVOYL TETRAHYDROPTERIN SYNTHASE

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 10024455

Disease

[PTPS_RAT] Note=Deficiency leads to phenylketonuria.

Function

[PTPS_RAT] Involved in the biosynthesis of tetrahydrobiopterin, an essential cofactor of aromatic amino acid hydroxylases. Catalyzes the transformation of 7,8-dihydroneopterin triphosphate into 6-pyruvoyl tetrahydropterin.
