Glossary: |
staphyloferrin A = N2-[(R)-citryl],N5-[(S)-citryl]-D-ornithine
citryl = 3-hydroxy-3,4-dicarboxybutanoyl |
Other name(s): |
sfnaB (gene name) |
Systematic name: |
N5-[(S)-citryl]-D-ornithine:citrate ligase (staphyloferrin A-forming) |
Comments: |
Requires Mg2+. The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus, catalyses the last step in the biosynthesis of the siderophore staphyloferrin A. It belongs to a class of siderophore synthases known as type A nonribosomal peptide synthase-independent synthases (NIS). Type A NIS enzymes are responsible for the formation of amide or ester bonds between polyamines or amino alcohols and a prochiral carboxyl group of citrate. The enzyme forms a citrate adenylate intermediate prior to ligation. |
