FunctionInvolved in the biogenesis of the hydroxyphenyloxazoline-containing siderophore mycobactins (initiation step of mycobactin chain growth). Activates the mycobactin ArCP in two half-reactions: activates salicylic acid as acyladenylate (adenylation step) + transfers activated salicylate to the MBTA ArCP as a thioester (arylation step).
ProductBifunctional enzyme MbtA: salicyl-AMP ligase (SAL-AMP ligase) + salicyl-S-ArCP synthetase
CommentsRv2384, (MTCY22H8.01, MTCY253.37c), len: 565 aa. mbtA, bifunctional enzyme, including salicyl-AMP ligase (Sal-AMP ligase) and salicyl-S-ArCP synthetase (see Quadri et al., 1998; De Voss et al., 1999), highly similar to other ligases e.g. Q9F638|MXCE from Stigmatella aurantiaca 2,3-DHBA-AMP ligase (protein involved in the biosynthesis of 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid, contains the AMP binding signature) (543 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1683, E(): 2.8e-90, (48.25% identity in 545 aa overlap) (see Silakowski et al., 2000); P40871|DHBE_BACSU|ENTE 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate-AMP ligase from Bacillus subtilis (539 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1569, E(): 1.2e-83, (44.9% identity in 532 aa overlap); O07899|VIBE_VIBCHVC0772 vibriobactin-specific 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate-AMP ligase from Vibrio cholerae (543 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1457, E(): 3.7e-77, (44.6% identity in 545 aa overlap); etc. Also similar to P95819|SNBA pristinamycin I synthetase I from Streptomyces pristinaespiralis (582 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1532, E(): 1.7e-81, (46.35% identity in 548 aa overlap); and Q9RFM9|PCHD salicyl-AMP ligase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa (547 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1415, E(): 1e-74, (45.95% identity in 533 aa overlap). Contains PS00455 Putative AMP-binding domain signature. Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family.
