sbnA (N-(2-amino-2-carboxyethyl)-L-glutamate synthase)

FEATURES

FAMILY

cysteine synthase/cystathionine beta-synthase family

DESCRIPTION

Also known as SBNA_STAA3, sbnA. Catalyzes the synthesis of N-((2S)-2-amino-2-carboxyethyl)-L-glutamate (ACEGA) from O-phospho-L-serine and L-glutamate. Involved in the biosynthesis of L-2, 3-diaminopropionic acid (L-Dap), a precursor of staphyloferrin B and antibiotics. Homodimer.
