Sysname
tobramycin:carbamoyl phosphate ligase (AMP,phosphate-forming)
Reaction(IUBMB)
(1) tobramycin + carbamoyl phosphate + ATP + H2O = nebramycin 5' + AMP + diphosphate + phosphate (overall reaction) [RN:
R10767 ];
(1a) carbamoyl phosphate + ATP + H2O = diphosphate + O-carbamoyladenylate + phosphate [RN:
R10541 ];
(1b) O-carbamoyladenylate + tobramycin = AMP + nebramycin 5' [RN:
R10543 ];
(2) kanamycin A + carbamoyl phosphate + ATP + H2O = 6''-O-carbamoylkanamycin A + AMP + diphosphate + phosphate (overall reaction) [RN:
R10768 ];
(2a) carbamoyl phosphate + ATP + H2O = diphosphate + O-carbamoyladenylate + phosphate;
(2b) O-carbamoyladenylate + kanamycin A = AMP + 6''-O-carbamoylkanamycin A [RN:
R10544 ]

Comment
Requires Fe(III). The enzyme from the bacterium Streptoalloteichus tenebrarius catalyses the activation of carbamoyl phosphate to O-carbamoyladenylate and the subsequent carbamoylation of kanamycin and tobramycin.
