Comments [?]

Function Catalyzes the synthesis of the hydroxymethylpyrimidine phosphate (HMP-P) moiety of thiamine from aminoimidazole ribotide (AIR) in a radical S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM)-dependent reaction.
Catalytic activity RHEA:24840: 5-amino-1-(5-phospho-beta-D-ribosyl)imidazole + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = 4-amino-2-methyl-5-(phosphooxymethyl)pyrimidine + 5'-deoxyadenosine + CO + formate + 3 H(+) + L-methionine
EC 4.1.99.17
case <FTGroup:2>
Cofactor [4Fe-4S] cluster
Note: Binds 1 [4Fe-4S] cluster per subunit. The cluster is coordinated with 3 cysteines and an exchangeable S-adenosyl-L-methionine.
end case
Pathway Cofactor biosynthesis; thiamine diphosphate biosynthesis.
case <OC:Pseudomonadota>
Subunit Homodimer.
end case
Similarity Belongs to the ThiC family.
