pyridoxine 5'-phosphate synthase
pyridoxine 5'-phosphate synthase catalyzes the ring closure reaction between the two acyclic compounds 1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate (DXP) and 3-amino-2-oxopropyl phosphate (1-amino-acetone-3-phosphate or AAP) to form pyridoxine 5'-phosphate (PNP) and inorganic phosphate
PdxJ is required in the biosynthesis of pyridoxine (vitamin B6), a precursor to the enzyme cofactor pyridoxal phosphate. ECOCYC describes the predicted reaction equation as 1-amino-propan-2-one-3-phosphate + deoxyxylulose-5-phosphate = pyridoxine-5'-phosphate. The product of that reaction is oxidized by PdxH to pyridoxal 5'-phosphate.
