Dethiobiotin synthetase BioD

BE0004052ProteinMycobacterium tuberculosisbioD

Catalyzes a mechanistically unusual reaction, the ATP-dependent insertion of CO2 between the N7 and N8 nitrogen atoms of 7,8-diaminopelargonic acid (DAPA, also called 7,8-diammoniononanoate) to form a ureido ring (PubMed:20565114). It is acted on by 1 drug in DrugBank.
