A pyridoxal-phosphate protein that requires potassium for activity . In the proteobacterium Acinetobacter baumannii, this enzyme is cotranscribed with the neighbouring ddc gene that also encodes EC 4.1.1.86, diaminobutyrate decarboxylase. Differs from EC 2.6.1.46, diaminobutyrate---pyruvate transaminase, which has pyruvate as the amino-group acceptor. This is the first enzyme in the ectoine-biosynthesis pathway, the other enzymes involved being EC 2.3.1.178, diaminobutyrate acetyltransferase and EC 4.2.1.108, ectoine synthase [3,4].
Involved in the formation of 1,3-diaminopropane in Haemophilus influenzae and Acinetobacter baumannii. A product of the ddc gene that also encodes L-2,4-diaminobutyrate decarboxylase in Acinetobacter baumannii. Differs from EC 2.6.1.46 diaminobutyrate-pyruvate transaminase, which has pyruvate as the amino-group acceptor

production of ectoine in Escherichia coli. The Escherichia coli regulatory protein AraC is engineered to recognize ectoine as it snon-natural effector and to activate transcription upon ectoine binding. The ectoine biosynthetic cluster from Halomonas elongata is cloned into Escherichia coli. By engineering the rate-limiting enzyme L-2,4-diaminobutyric acid aminotransferase EctB, ectoine production and the specific activityof the EctB mutant are increased
