Function

function

Involved in the biosynthesis of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA). Catalyzes an alkyl-migration followed by a ketol-acid reduction of (S)-2-acetolactate (S2AL) to yield (R)-2,3-dihydroxy-isovalerate. In the isomerase reaction, S2AL is rearranged via a Mg-dependent methyl migration to produce 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-ketobutyrate (HMKB). In the reductase reaction, this 2-ketoacid undergoes a metal-dependent reduction by NADPH to yield (R)-2,3-dihydroxy-isovalerate.

Catalytic activity

Pathway

Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-isoleucine biosynthesis; L-isoleucine from 2-oxobutanoate: step 2/4.
Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-valine biosynthesis; L-valine from pyruvate: step 2/4.
