Tetrahydrosarcinapterin synthase (, ''H4MPT:alpha-L-glutamate ligase'', ''MJ0620'', ''MptN protein'') is an
enzyme with
systematic name ''tetrahydromethanopterin:alpha-L-glutamate ligase (ADP-forming)''.
This enzyme
catalyses the following
chemical reaction
: ATP +
tetrahydromethanopterin +
L-
glutamate
Glutamic acid (symbol Glu or E; the ionic form is known as glutamate) is an α-amino acid that is used by almost all living beings in the biosynthesis of proteins. It is a non-essential nutrient for humans, meaning that the human body can syn ...
ADP +
phosphate + 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrosarcinapterin
This enzyme catalyses the biosynthesis of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrosarcinapterin.
