In enzymology, a phosphopantothenate—cysteine ligase also known as phosphopantothenoylcysteine synthetase (PPCS) is an enzyme (EC 6.3.2.5) that catalyzes the chemical reaction which constitutes the second of five steps involved in the conversion of pantothenate to Coenzyme A. The reaction is:
- NTP + (R)-4'-phosphopantothenate + L-cysteine NMP + diphosphate + N-[(R)-4'-phosphopantothenoyl]-L-cysteine
The nucleoside triphosphate (NTP) involved in the reaction varies from species to species. Phosphopantothenate—cysteine ligase from the bacterium Escherichia coli uses cytidine triphosphate (CTP) as an energy donor, whilst the human isoform uses adenosine triphosphate (ATP).[1]
Nomenclature
[edit]This enzyme belongs to the family of ligases, specifically those forming carbon-nitrogen bonds as acid-D-amino-acid ligases (peptide syntheses). The systematic name of this enzyme class is (R)-4'-phosphopantothenate:L-cysteine ligase. This enzyme is also called phosphopantothenoylcysteine synthetase.
