[butirosin acyl-carrier protein]-L-glutamate ligase

Catalyses two steps in the biosynthesis of the side chain of the aminoglycoside antibiotics of the butirosin family. The enzyme adds one molecule of L-glutamate to a dedicated acyl-carrier protein, and following decarboxylation of the product by EC 4.1.1.95, L-glutamyl-[BtrI acyl-carrier protein] decarboxylase, adds a second L-glutamate molecule.Requires Mg2+ or Mn2+, and activity is enhanced in the presence of Mn2+.
