EC 6.3.2.63     
Accepted name: putrebactin synthase
Reaction: 2 ATP + 2 N1-hydroxy-N1-succinylputrescine = 2 AMP + 2 diphosphate + putrebactin (overall reaction)
(1a) ATP + 2 N1-hydroxy-N1-succinylputrescine = AMP + diphosphate + pre-putrebactin
(1b) ATP + pre-putrebactin = AMP + diphosphate + putrebactin
Glossary: putrebactin = 1,11-dihydroxy-1,6,11,16-tetraazacycloicosane-2,5,12,15-tetrone
pre-putrebactin = 4-{[4-({4-[(4-aminobutyl)(hydroxy)amino]-4-oxobutanoyl}amino)butyl](hydroxy)amino}-4-oxobutanoate
Other name(s): pubC (gene name)
Systematic name: N1-hydroxy-N1-succinylputrescine:N1-hydroxy-N1-succinylputrescine ligase
Comments: Requires Mg2+. The enzyme, characterized from the bacteria Shewanella spp. MR-4 and MR-7, catalyse the last step in the biosynthesis of the siderophore putrebactin. The enzyme catalyses the reaction in two steps - concatenation of two molecules of N1-hydroxy-N1-succinylputrescine, followed by cyclization.
