Thiazole synthase

GENE NAME

Thiazole synthase

ORGANISM

Mycobacterium ulcerans (strain Agy99)

GENE NAME

thiG

GENE ID

4552971

TDR TARGET ID

954829

PROTEIN LENGTH

264

ASSOCIATED METABOLIC PATHWAYS

Thiamine metabolism

FUNCTION

Catalyzes the rearrangement of 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate (DXP) to produce the thiazole phosphate moiety of thiamine. Sulfur is provided by the thiocarboxylate moiety of the carrier protein ThiS. In vitro, sulfur can be provided by H2S.
