Type: | Family | Name: | Phosphoribosylformylglycinamidine synthase, FGAM |
Description: | This entry represents a single-molecule form of phosphoribosylformylglycinamidine synthase, also called FGAM synthase, an enzyme of purine de novo biosynthesis, which represent a second clade of the enzymes found in Clostridia, Bifidobacteria and Streptococcus species. This enzyme performs the fourth step in IMP biosynthesis (the precursor of all purines) from PRPP. | Short Name: | FGAM_synthase |
