L-aminoadipate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase-phosphopantetheinyl transferase (AASDHPPT)

The protein contains 309 amino acids for an estimated molecular weight of 35776 Da.

 

Catalyzes the post-translational modification of target proteins by phosphopantetheine. Can transfer the 4'-phosphopantetheine moiety from coenzyme A, regardless of whether the CoA is presented in the free thiol form or as an acetyl thioester, to a serine residue of a broad range of acceptors including the acyl carrier domain of FASN.

Alpha-aminoadipate semialdehyde dehydrogenase-phosphopantetheinyl transferase; aasdhppt
Aasdppt
Lys5, s. cerevisiae, homolog of
Cgi-80

DESCRIPTION

In mammals, L-lysine is first catabolized to alpha-aminoadipate semialdehyde by the bifunctional enzyme alpha-aminoadipate semialdehyde synthase (AASS; 605113), followed by a conversion to alpha-aminoadipate (AAA) by alpha-aminoadipate semialdehyde dehydrogenase (AASDH). In S. cerevisiae, which synthesize rather than degrade lysine, the latter activity requires 2 distinct genes. LYS2 encodes the alpha-aminoadipate reductase activity, while LYS5 encodes a phosphopantetheinyl transferase activity that is required to activate LYS2 protein.

CLONING

Praphanphoj et al. (2001) identified a full-length human cDNA homologous to the yeast LYS5 gene. The cDNA contains an open reading frame of 930 basepairs predicted to encode 309 amino acids, and the human protein is 26% identical to its yeast counterpart. Northern blot analysis detected a single transcript of approximately 3 kb in all tissues except testis, where there was an additional transcript of 1.5 kb. Expression is highest in brain followed by heart and skeletal muscle, and to a lesser extent in liver.

MAPPING

By FISH, Praphanphoj et al. (2001) mapped the human AASDPPT gene to chromosome 11q22.

GENE FUNCTION

Praphanphoj et al. (2001) used complementation studies in a yeast knockout of LYS5 to demonstrate that the human homolog encodes alpha-aminoadipate dehydrogenase-phosphopantetheinyl transferase activity. Kasahara and Kato (2003) fed mice a lysine-rich diet (containing 2,000-fold more free lysine than normal) and found that blood concentrations of lysine and 2-aminoadipic acid (AAA) were markedly increased. The level of U26, or mouse aminoadipic 6-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (AASDH), in the liver and heart of lysine-loaded mice was significantly higher than in control mice. Mouse AASS and Lys5 transcripts were also increased in the lysine-loaded mice. Kasahara and Kato (2003) concluded that U26, as well as AASS and LYS5, is involved in the lysine degradation pathway in mice. They found that pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a crucial redox cofactor in this reaction and qualifies as a newcomer to the B group of vitamins. ... More on the omim web site
