>TIGR02528 EutP ethanolamine utilization protein, EutP; InterPro: IPR012381 Members of this family function in ethanolamine and propanediol degradation pathways. Both pathways require coenzyme B12 (adenosylcobalamin, AdoCbl). Bacteria that harbour these pathways can use ethanolamine as a source of carbon and nitrogen, or propanediol as a sole carbon and energy source, respectively. The exact roles of the EutP and PduV proteins in these respective pathways are not yet determined. Members of this family contain P-loop consensus motifs in the N-terminal part, and are distantly related to various GTPases and ATPases, including ATPase components of transport systems. Propanediol degradation is thought to be important for the natural Salmonella populations, since propanediol is produced by the fermentation of the common plant sugars rhamnose and fucose , . More than 10f the Salmonella enterica genome is devoted to the utilisation of propanediol and cobalamin biosynthesis. In vivo expression technology has indicated that propanediol utilisation (pdu) genes may be important for growth in host tissues, and competitive index studies with mice have shown that pdu mutations confer a virulence defect , . The pdu operon is contiguous and co-regulated with the cobalamin (B12) biosynthesis cob operon, indicating that propanediol catabolism may be the primary reason for de novo B12 synthesis in Salmonella , , . Please see IPR003207 from INTERPRO, IPR003208 from INTERPRO, IPR009204 from INTERPRO, IPR009191 from INTERPRO, IPR009192 from INTERPRO for more details on the propanediol utilisation pathway and the pdu operon.; GO: 0005524 ATP binding, 0006576 biogenic amine metabolic process.
