General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
2.2.1.6 evolution the enzyme belongs to the ALS enzyme family that forms a distinct subgroup of ThDP-dependent enzymes. The ALS subfamily differs significantly in structure and possibly in catalytic mechanism, phylogenetic analysis. The ThDP-dependent enzymes cluster into three distinct sequence groups: acetolactate synthases, acetohydroxyacid synthases, and carboxylases. Eventhough ALS and AHAS catalyze the same reaction, they show different cofactors and domain structure: AHAS family enzymes have both catalytic and regulatory subunits, structure comparisons, overview Bacillus subtilis
