Metabolite Identification
Common Name6-amino-6-deoxyfutalosine
Description6-amino-6-deoxyfutalosine is a metabolite belonging to the class of nucleoside derivatives. Its chemical structure features an amino group and a deoxy sugar moiety, which plays a crucial role in various biochemical pathways. This compound is primarily involved in the futalosine pathway, utilized by certain bacteria such as Campylobacter jejuni and Helicobacter pylori. In this pathway, 6-amino-6-deoxyfutalosine serves as a substrate for enzymes like 5'-methylthioadenosine nucleosidase (CjMTAN), which catalyzes its hydrolysis to produce dehypoxanthinylfutalosine, a precursor for menaquinone biosynthesis (PMID:30339406 ). Additionally, Helicobacter pylori MTAN hydrolyzes 6-amino-6-deoxyfutalosine in a similar manner during menaquinone synthesis (PMID:27856757 ). The substrate specificity of CjMTAN includes various adenosine-based metabolites, highlighting its versatile enzymatic role (PMID:30339406 ). Furthermore, the hydrolysis mechanism of 6-amino-6-deoxyfutalosine exhibits similarities to that of Escherichia coli MTAN, indicating conserved biochemical pathways across different bacterial species (PMID:24419390 ). Overall, 6-amino-6-deoxyfutalosine is integral to bacterial metabolism, particularly in the context of menaquinone production.
