Name Carboxylester
Scope Bacteria; Proteobacteria



Identifier
BIOH
Protein name
RecName: Full=Pimelyl-[acyl-carrier protein] methyl ester esterase;
EC=3.1.1.85;
AltName: Full=Biotin synthesis protein BioH;
AltName: Full=Carboxylesterase BioH;
Gene name
bioH


FUNCTION The physiological role of BioH is to remove the methyl group introduced by BioC when the pimeloyl moiety is complete. It allows to synthesize pimeloyl-ACP via the fatty acid synthetic pathway through the hydrolysis of the ester bonds of pimeloyl-ACP esters (By similarity).
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Pimelyl-[acyl-carrier protein] methyl ester + H(2)O = pimelyl-[acyl-carrier protein] + methanol.
PATHWAY Cofactor biosynthesis; biotin biosynthesis.
SUBUNIT Monomer (By similarity).
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION Cytoplasm (By similarity).
SIMILARITY Belongs to the AB hydrolase superfamily. Carboxylesterase BioH family.




GO:0004091; Molecular function: carboxylesterase activity.
