Comments [?]

FUNCTIONInvolved in the degradation of L-fucose and D-arabinose. Catalyzes the reversible cleavage of L-fuculose 1-phosphate (Fuc1P) to yield dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) and L-lactaldehyde.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Reaction=L-fuculose 1-phosphate = (S)-lactaldehyde + dihydroxyacetone phosphate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:12933, ChEBI:CHEBI:18041, ChEBI:CHEBI:57642, ChEBI:CHEBI:57846; EC=4.1.2.17;
COFACTOR Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105; Note=Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit.;
PATHWAYCarbohydrate degradation; L-fucose degradation; L-lactaldehyde and glycerone phosphate from L-fucose: step 3/3.
SUBUNITHomotetramer.
SIMILARITYBelongs to the aldolase class II family. AraD/FucA subfamily.
