Chemical Taxonomy
Description belongs to the class of organic compounds known as cyclic depsipeptides. These are natural or synthetic compounds having sequences of amino and hydroxy carboxylic acid residues (usually α-amino and α-hydroxy acids) connected in a ring. The residues are commonly but not necessarily regularly alternating.

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in ligase activity
Specific function:
Activates the carboxylate group of L-serine via ATP- dependent PPi exchange reactions to the aminoacyladenylate, preparing that molecule for the final stages of enterobactin synthesis. Holo-entF acts as the catalyst for the formation of the three amide and three ester bonds present in the cyclic (2,3- dihydroxybenzoyl)serine trimer enterobactin, using seryladenylate and acyl-holo-entB (acylated with 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate by entE)
Gene Name:
entF
Uniprot ID:
P11454
Molecular weight:
141990
Reactions
ATP + L-serine = diphosphate + L-serine-adenylate.
General function:
Involved in iron ion binding
Specific function:
Upon internalization, ferric enterobactin is processed via an exquisitely specific pathway that is dependent on FES activity, making iron available for metabolic use
Gene Name:
fes
Uniprot ID:
P13039
Molecular weight:
42569
General function:
Involved in magnesium ion binding
Specific function:
Catalyzes the transfer of the 4'-phosphopantetheine moiety from coenzyme A to apo-domains of both entB (an ArCP domain) and entF (a PCP domain). Plays an essential role in the assembly of the enterobactin
Gene Name:
entD
Uniprot ID:
P19925
Molecular weight:
23604
Reactions
CoA + apo-EntB/F = adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate + holo-EntB/F.

Transporters

General function:

Gene Name:
entS
Uniprot ID:
