From Proteopedia
X-ray crystal structure of a serine hydroxymethyl transferase in apo form from Burkholderia cenocepacia
Function
[B4ECY9_BURCJ] Catalyzes the reversible interconversion of serine and glycine with tetrahydrofolate (THF) serving as the one-carbon carrier. This reaction serves as the major source of one-carbon groups required for the biosynthesis of purines, thymidylate, methionine, and other important biomolecules. Also exhibits THF-independent aldolase activity toward beta-hydroxyamino acids, producing glycine and aldehydes, via a retro-aldol mechanism (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00051]
