The protein
Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity
5-methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamate + L-homocysteine --> L-methionine + tetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamate (according to UniProt)
Protein family
vitamin-B12 independent methionine synthase family (single member, according to UniProt)
Structure
[PDB|1T7L] (from ''Thermotoga maritima'', 44% identity, 61% similarity) [Pubmed|15630480]
[AF|P80877]
Modification
phosphorylated on ser/ thr/ tyr [Pubmed|17726680], S-cysteinylation after diamide stress (C719) [Pubmed|17611193]
Cys719 and Cys730 are S-bacillithiolated by NaOCl stress in B. subtilis and other Bacillus species [Pubmed|21749987] [Pubmed|22938038]
MetE is generally most strongly S-bacillithiolated by NaOCl stress in B. subtilis and other Bacillus species [Pubmed|21749987] [Pubmed|22938038]
Additional information
subject to Clp-dependent proteolysis upon glucose starvation [Pubmed|17981983]
belongs to the 100 most abundant proteins [PubMed|15378759]
