    Phenotypes of a mutant

  • more resistant than wild-type to zinc limitation when grown on rich medium (LB), this is blocked by simultaneous deletion of [gene|29FF54E2B9F4A11811F5E15885A4C02A259C7B35|purB] (reason: accumulation of ZTP that stimulates the binding of [protein|75DB07A2704FEC2932BD0CDD24E2B3454E9551E1|ZagA] to [protein|7732A37D59E2643F232F2C0AFE51BCF7A79EDE29|FolE], and thus folate biosynthesis during zinc limitation) [pubmed|31132310]

    • The protein

    Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

  • (6S)-10-formyltetrahydrofolate + 5-amino-1-(5-phospho-β-D-ribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamide --> (6S)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + 5-formamido-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamide (according to UniProt)
  • H2O + IMP --> 5-formamido-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamide (according to UniProt)

    • Protein family

  • purH family (single member, according to UniProt)

    • Structure

  • [PDB|1ZCZ] (from ''Thermotoga maritima'', 36% identity, 54% similarity) [Pubmed|18260100]
