    The protein

    Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

  • 7-aminomethyl-7-carbaguanine + 2 NADP+ --> 7-cyano-7-deazaguanine + 3 H+ + 2 NADPH (according to UniProt)

    • Protein family

  • GTP cyclohydrolase I family (with [protein|7732A37D59E2643F232F2C0AFE51BCF7A79EDE29|FolE], according to UniProt)

    • Modification

  • active site Cys55 is S-bacillithiolated by NaOCl stress [Pubmed|22938038]
  • disulfide formation between the catalytic Cys55 and conserved Cys99 protects the protein from irreversible oxidation [pubmed|28300774]
