EC 2.7.4.22

Accepted name: UMP kinase

Reaction: ATP + UMP = ADP + UDP

Other name(s): uridylate kinase; UMPK; uridine monophosphate kinase; PyrH; UMP-kinase; SmbA

Systematic name: ATP:UMP phosphotransferase

Comments: This enzyme is strictly specific for UMP as substrate and is used by prokaryotes in the de novo synthesis of pyrimidines, in contrast to eukaryotes, which use the dual-specificity enzyme UMP/CMP kinase (EC 2.7.4.14) for the same purpose [2]. This enzyme is the subject of feedback regulation, being inhibited by UTP and activated by GTP [1].

Glossary: PRPP = 5-phospho-α-D-ribose 1-diphosphate

Other name(s): ribose 1,5-bisphosphokinase; PhnN; ATP:ribose-1,5-bisphosphate phosphotransferase

Systematic name: ATP:α-D-ribose-1,5-bisphosphate phosphotransferase

Comments: This enzyme, found in NAD supression mutants of Escherichia coli, synthesizes 5-phospho-α-D-ribose 1-diphosphate (PRPP) without the participation of EC 2.7.6.1, ribose-phosphate diphosphokinase. Ribose, ribose 1-phosphate and ribose 5-phosphate are not substrates, and GTP cannot act as a phosphate donor.

EC 2.7.4.25

Accepted name: (d)CMP kinase

Reaction: ATP + (d)CMP = ADP + (d)CDP

Glossary: CMP = cytidine monophosphate
dCMP = deoxycytidine monophosphate
CDP = cytidine diphosphate
dCDP = deoxycytidine diphosphate
UMP = uridine monophosphate
UDP = uridine diphosphate

Other name(s): prokaryotic cytidylate kinase; deoxycytidylate kinase; dCMP kinase; deoxycytidine monophosphokinase

Systematic name: ATP:(d)CMP phosphotransferase

Comments: The prokaryotic cytidine monophosphate kinase specifically phosphorylates CMP (or dCMP), using ATP as the preferred phosphoryl donor. Unlike EC 2.7.4.14, a eukaryotic enzyme that phosphorylates UMP and CMP with similar efficiency, the prokaryotic enzyme phosphorylates UMP with very low rates, and this function is catalysed in prokaryotes by EC 2.7.4.22, UMP kinase. The enzyme phosphorylates dCMP nearly as well as it does CMP [1].

Accepted name: GDP-polyphosphate phosphotransferase

Reaction: GTP + (phosphate)n = GDP + (phosphate)n+1

Other name(s): ppk2 (gene name); polyphosphate kinase 2

Systematic name: GTP:polyphosphate phosphotransferase

Comments: Polyphosphate kinase 2, characterized from the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa, uses inorganic polyphosphate as a donor to convert GDP to GTP. The enzyme can also act on ADP (cf. EC 2.7.4.1, ATP-polyphosphate phosphotransferase), but with lower activity. The enzyme has only a trivial activity in the opposite direction (synthesizing polyphosphate from GTP). The GTP that is produced is believed to be consumed by EC 2.7.7.13, mannose-1-phosphate guanylyltransferase, for production of alginate during stationary phase.

Other name(s): 2-amino-4-hydroxy-6-hydroxymethyldihydropteridine pyrophosphokinase; H2-pteridine-CH2OH pyrophosphokinase; 7,8-dihydroxymethylpterin-pyrophosphokinase; HPPK; 7,8-dihydro-6-hydroxymethylpterin pyrophosphokinase; hydroxymethyldihydropteridine pyrophosphokinase; ATP:2-amino-4-hydroxy-6-hydroxymethyl-7,8-dihydropteridine 6'-diphosphotransferase

Systematic name: ATP:6-hydroxymethyl-7,8-dihydropterin 6'-diphosphotransferase

Comments: Binds 2 Mg2+ ions that are essential for activity [4]. The enzyme participates in the biosynthetic pathways for folate (in bacteria, plants, fungi, and some archaeal species, including the haloarchaea) and methanopterin (in some archaeal species such as the Archaeoglobi and Methanobacteria). The enzyme exists in varying types of multifunctional proteins in different organisms. The enzyme from the bacterium Streptococcus pneumoniae also harbours the activity of EC 4.1.2.25, dihydroneopterin aldolase [4], the enzyme from the plant Arabidopsis thaliana harbours the activity of EC 2.5.1.15, dihydropteroate synthase [7], while the enzyme from yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is trifunctional with both of the two above mentioned activities [6].
