FunctionInvolved in the terpenoid biosynthesis pathway (at the third step). Catalyzes the formation of 4-diphosphocytidyl-2C-methyl-D-erythritol from 2C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate. [Catalytic activity: CTP and CTP + 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate = diphosphate + 4-(cytidine 5'-diphospho)-2-C-methyl-D-erythritol].
ProductProbable 4-diphosphocytidyl-2C-methyl-D-erythritol synthase IspD (2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate cytidylyltransferase) (MEP cytidylyltransferase) (MCT)
CommentsML0321, len: 241 aa. Probable ispD, 4-diphosphocytidyl-2C-methyl-D-erythritol synthase (EC 2.7.7.-), highly similar to Rv3582c|YZ82_MYCTU|P96864 probable ispD, 4-diphosphocytidyl-2C-methyl-D-erythritol synthase from M. tuberculosis (231 aa), Fasta scores: E(): 0, (66.0% identity in 241 aa overlap). Similar to other bacterial 4-diphosphocytidyl-2C-methyl-D-erythritol synthases e.g. CAB77327|AL160331 from Streptomyces coelicolor (270 aa), Fasta scores: E(): 4.3e-25, (45.0% identity in 240 aa overlap) and AAF43207|AF230736 ispD from Escherichia coli (236 aa), Fasta scores: E(): 0.0016, (36.1% identity in 244 aa overlap). Contains the PS01295 4-diphosphocytidyl-2C-methyl-D-erythritol synthase signature and Pfam match to entry PF01128 UPF0007, Uncharacterized protein family UPF0007. Belongs to the IspD family.
