Secondary Information |
|---|
| Protein Function | Catalyzes
the reversible conversion of L-serine and tetrahydrofolate
into glycine and 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate; plays a pivotal role in one-carbon metabolism;
is involved in cancer metabolic reprogramming and is a
recognized target of chemotherapy intervention |
|---|
| Biochemical Properties | pH optimum of SHMT mitochondrial is 0.5 unit higher with respect to
that of SHMTcytosolic; cytosolic SHMT shows a
marked decrease in the level of substrate inhibition at high pH
values; in the case of SHMT1, below 20 μM
Tetrahydrofolate, the enzyme activity decreases as the pH is increased
from 6.9 to 8.4 |
|---|
| Significance in milk | May be related to stage-specific
expression, varying throughout gestation and rising after
birth as found in swines |
|---|
| PTMs | Ubiquitinated at the small ubiquitin-like
modifier (SUMO) consensus motif ; SUMO-1 modification
occurs at either Lys-38 or Lys-39 |
|---|
Site(s) of PTM(s)
N-glycosylation,
O-glycosylation,
Phosphorylation
| |
|---|
| Predicted Disorder Regions | NA |
|---|
| DisProt Annotation | |
|---|
| TM Helix Prediction | No TM helices |
|---|
| Significance of PTMs | As found in vivo, ubiquitinationis required for SHMT1 degradation; SUMOylation is required for nuclear transport |
