malfunction | transcriptomic and metabolomic changes of wild-type enzyme and an insertional knockout mutant strains, especially expression of lipoproteins of the YaeC family and cysteine synthase are affected, overview | Limosilactobacillus reuteri |
physiological function | two potential roles for the enzyme, the first is in the production of autoinducer-2, mediating quorum sensing, and the second is as an enzyme in the activated methyl cycle, where it catalyzes the conversion of S-ribosylhomocysteine to homocysteine. The by-product of the reaction catalyzed by the enzyme is (S)-4,5-dihydroxy-2,3-pentanedione, which spontaneously forms the furanones known collectively as autoinducer-2, AI-2 | Limosilactobacillus reuteri |
