the enzyme is composed of two domains: an N-terminal catalytic domain (kinase) domain and a C-terminal regulatory domain further comprised of two small domains belonging to the ACT domain family. Bending regions are in the vicinity of ATP binding site involved in domain movements between the catalytic and regulatory domains. Tetramer formation, overview |

evolution |
the enzyme is composed of two domains: an N-terminal catalytic domain (kinase) domain and a C-terminal regulatory domain further comprised of two small domains belonging to the ACT domain family. The enzyme CaAK monomer from Clostridium acetobutylicum belongs to the class I type aspartate kinases which consists of one catalytic domain and two ACT domains |
Clostridium acetobutylicum |
2.7.2.4 |
metabolism |
the enzyme catalyzes the first step in the aspartate-derived amino acid pathway. Synthesis of 4-phospho-L-aspartate from L-aspartate is an intermediate step at an important branch point where one path leads to the synthesis of lysine and the other to threonine, methionine and isoleucine. The aspartate kinase enzymes exhibit complex allosteric regulation |
