chorismate mutase, archaeal type This model represents a clade of archaeal chorismate mutases. Chorismate mutase catalyzes the conversion of chorismate into prephenate which is subsequently converted into either phenylalanine or tyrosine. In Sulfolobus this gene is found as a fusion with prephenate dehydrogenase (although the non-TIGR annotation contains a typographical error indicating it as a dehydratase OMNI|NTL02SS0274) which is the next enzyme in the tyrosine biosynthesis pathway. The Archaeoglobus gene contains an N-terminal prephenate dehydrogenase domain and a C-terminal prephenate dehydratase domain followed by a regulatory amino acid-binding ACT domain. The Thermoplasma volcanium gene is adjacent to prephenate dehydratase. [Amino acid biosynthesis, Aromatic amino acid family] |
