Function
[SNZ1_YEAST] Required for the production of pyridoxine (vitamin B6). May be involved in growth arrest and cellular response to nutrient limitation. Required for growth in the presence of low level of intracellular pyridoxine.[1] [2]

Publication Abstract from PubMed
The universal enzymatic cofactor vitamin B6 can be synthesized as pyridoxal 5-phosphate (PLP) by the glutamine amidotransferase Pdx1. We show that Saccharomyces cerevisiae Pdx1 is hexameric by analytical ultracentrifugation and by crystallographic 3D structure determination. Bacterial homologues were previously reported to exist in hexamer:dodecamer equilibrium. A small sequence insertion found in yeast Pdx1 elevates the dodecamer dissociation constant when introduced into Bacillus subtilis Pdx1. Further, we demonstrate that the yeast Pdx1 C-terminus contacts an adjacent subunit, and deletion of this segment decreases enzymatic activity 3.5-fold, suggesting a role in catalysis.
X-ray crystal structure of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Pdx1 provides insights into the oligomeric nature of PLP synthases.,Neuwirth M, Strohmeier M, Windeisen V, Wallner S, Deller S, Rippe K, Sinning I, Macheroux P, Tews I FEBS Lett. 2009 Jul 7;583(13):2179-86. Epub 2009 Jun 11. PMID:19523954[3]
