Summary
FLAD1 (flavin adenine dinucleotide synthetase 1, HGNC:24671) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1q21.3, encoding Bifunctional FAD diphosphatase/FAD synthase (Q8NFF5). This enzyme has two activities: FAD diphosphatase activity and FAD synthase activity.
This gene encodes the enzyme that catalyzes adenylation of flavin mononucleotide (FMN) to form flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) coenzyme. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been observed.

UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. This enzyme has two activities: FAD diphosphatase activity and FAD synthase activity. FAD diphosphatase acts on FAD and NADH to produce FMN and NMNH(2-), respectively. FAD synthase catalyzes the adenylation of flavin mononucleotide (FMN) to form flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) coenzyme. In addition to its catalytic activities, the protein also facilitates the delivery of FAD to client apo-flavoproteins. The balance between FAD synthesis and hydrolysis may be regulated by redox-sensing cysteine residues. At a much lower rate, FAD synthase catalyzes the reverse pyrophosphorolytic reaction. FAD synthase can also convert roseoflavin mononucleotide (RoFMN) to roseoflavin adenine dinucleotide (RoFAD); RoFMN is produced by riboflavin kinase when acting on the antibiotic roseoflavin (RoF). FAD synthase cannot convert 8-demethyl-8-amino-riboflavin mononucleotide (AFMN) to 8-demethyl-8-amino-riboflavin adenine dinucleotide (AFAD); AFMN is produced by riboflavin kinase when acting on the antibiotic 8-demethyl-8-amino-riboflavin (AF).
Subunit / interactions. Dimer. Interacts with KDM1A; which promotes KDM1A holoenzyme formation. Interacts with DMGDH; which promotes DMGDH holoenzyme formation.
Subcellular location. Nucleus Mitochondrion matrix Cytoplasm. Cytosol.
Post-translational modifications. May form disulfide bonds.
Disease relevance. Lipid storage myopathy due to flavin adenine dinucleotide synthetase deficiency (LSMFLAD) [MIM:255100] An autosomal recessive, inborn error of metabolism characterized by variable mitochondrial dysfunction. Clinical features range from severe cardiac and respiratory insufficiency with onset in infancy and resulting in early death, to mild muscle weakness with onset in adulthood. Some patients show significant improvement with riboflavin treatment. Analysis of skeletal muscle show multiple mitochondrial respiratory chain deficiency and a lipid storage myopathy in most patients. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Activity regulation. The reducing agent sodium dithionite stimulates FAD synthase activity. The FAD synthase activity is inhibited by GTP and GDP. The FAD synthase activity is also inhibited by the thiol reagents mersalyl, methylmercury, and mercury chloride; mersalyl also inhibits the reverse pyrophosphorylase activity. FAD diphosphatase activity is stimulated by glutathione and mersalyl. FAD diphosphatase activity is inhibited by ADP and ADP-ribose.
Cofactor. The FAD synthase activity requires a divalent metal. Magnesium or cobalt supports the highest FAD synthase activity, it has lower activity with manganese, calcium or zinc. Magnesium is also required for the reverse pyrophosphorolytic reaction. Cobalt does not appear to support the reverse reaction. The FAD diphosphatase activity requires cobalt. Nickel and manganese can substitute with much lower efficiency. Magnesium, calcium and copper cannot substitute. The FAD diphosphatase activity requires potassium. Can also use sodium to a lesser extent.
Pathway. Cofactor biosynthesis; FAD biosynthesis; FAD from FMN: step 1/1.
Similarity. In the N-terminal section; belongs to the MoaB/Mog family. In the C-terminal section; belongs to the PAPS reductase family. FAD1 subfamily.
