  • Riboflavin synthase beta chain
Gene Name:ribH
Enzyme Class:
Biological Properties
General Function:Involved in riboflavin biosynthetic process
Specific Function:Riboflavin synthase is a bifunctional enzyme complex catalyzing the formation of riboflavin from 5-amino-6-(1'-D)- ribityl-amino-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione and L-3,4-dihydrohy-2- butanone-4-phosphate via 6,7-dimethyl-8-lumazine. The beta subunit catalyzes the condensation of 5-amino-6-(1'-D)-ribityl-amino- 2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione with L-3,4-dihydrohy-2-butanone-4- phosphate yielding 6,7-dimethyl-8-lumazine
