EC 6.3.1.10

Accepted name: adenosylcobinamide-phosphate synthase

Reaction: (1) ATP + adenosylcobyric acid + (R)-1-aminopropan-2-yl phosphate = ADP + phosphate + adenosylcobinamide phosphate

(2) ATP + adenosylcobyric acid + (R)-1-aminopropan-2-ol = ADP + phosphate + adenosylcobinamide

Other name(s): CbiB

Systematic name: adenosylcobyric acid:(R)-1-aminopropan-2-yl phosphate ligase (ADP-forming)

Comments: One of the substrates for this reaction, (R)-1-aminopropan-2-yl phosphate, is produced by CobD (EC 4.1.1.81, threonine-phosphate decarboxylase).
