Protein: 4-amino-5-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpyrimidine phosphate synthase (HMP-P synthase) (Hydroxymethylpyrimidine phosphate synthase) (EC 2.-.-.-) (No message in thiamine protein 1) (Thiamine biosynthesis protein 3) (Thiamine pyrimidine synthase) (P36597)
Organism: Schizosaccharomyces pombe (strain 972 / ATCC 24843) (Fission yeast)
Function: Responsible for the formation of the pyrimidine heterocycle in the thiamine biosynthesis pathway. Catalyzes the formation of hydroxymethylpyrimidine phosphate (HMP-P) from histidine and pyridoxal phosphate (PLP). The protein uses PLP and the active site histidine to form HMP-P, generating an inactive enzyme. The enzyme can only undergo a single turnover, which suggests it is a suicide enzyme.
