COFACTOR Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105; Note=Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit.;
PATHWAYCofactor biosynthesis; riboflavin biosynthesis; 5-amino-6-(D- ribitylamino)uracil from GTP: step 1/4.
case <OC:Enterobacterales>
SUBUNITHomodimer.

Fusion Nter: <ribB-like>; <Unknown> Cter: None
Comments RibA and RibB are fused in some organisms (see MF_01283 for bifunctional RibBA). Some RibA are preceded by a ribB-like domain, which does not seem to code for DHBP synthase activity because it lacks all the residues important for activity. Fused with an unknown N-terminal domain in XYLFA and XYLFT. Possible wrong start in STRCO.
