Function Catalyzes the reversible conversion of 3-phosphohydroxypyruvate to phosphoserine and of 3-hydroxy-2-oxo-4-phosphonooxybutanoate to phosphohydroxythreonine.
Catalytic activity RHEA:14329: 2-oxoglutarate + O-phospho-L-serine = 3-phosphooxypyruvate + L-glutamate
EC 2.6.1.52
RHEA:16573: 2-oxoglutarate + 4-(phosphooxy)-L-threonine = (R)-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-4-phosphooxybutanoate + L-glutamate
EC 2.6.1.52
Cofactor pyridoxal 5'-phosphate
Note: Binds 1 pyridoxal phosphate per subunit.
Pathway Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-serine biosynthesis; L-serine from 3-phospho-D-glycerate: step 2/3.
case not <OC:Bacillota>
Pathway Cofactor biosynthesis; pyridoxine 5'-phosphate biosynthesis; pyridoxine 5'-phosphate from D-erythrose 4-phosphate: step 3/5.
end case
Subunit Homodimer.
Subcellular location Cytoplasm.
Similarity Belongs to the class-V pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. SerC subfamily.

Comments SerC is not involved in pyridoxine biosynthesis in B.subtilis, and probably also in other Bacillota. In these organisms, pyridoxal phosphate biosynthesis is achieved by an alternative pathway involving pdxS(yaaD) and pdxT(yaaE). SerC from Mycobacterium species are slightly divergent and could have a different activity.
