- |
| 5.4.99.5 | Chorismate |
biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids |
| 5.4.99.5 | Chorismate |
catalyzes the first step in the branch of the shikimate pathway which leads to the aromatic amino acids, Phe and Tyr |
| 5.4.99.5 | Chorismate |
enzyme of the first branch point of aromatic amino acid biosynthesis |
| 5.4.99.5 | Chorismate |
first committed step in the biosynthesis of the aromatic amino acids tyrosine and phenylalanine in bacteria, fungi and higher plants |
| 5.4.99.5 | Chorismate |
in the biosynthesis of Phe and Tyr, there are two enzymes or enzyme complexes metabolizing chorismate, one leading through prephenate to phenylpyruvate and the other leading through prephenate to 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate |
| 5.4.99.5 | more |
isochorismate-pyruvate lyase, PchB EC 4.2.99.21, can also perform the chorismate mutase reaction |
| 5.4.99.5 | Chorismate |
phenylalanine biosynthesis |
| 5.4.99.5 | Chorismate |
plastidic isoenzyme is elicitor-inducible and pathogen-inducible |
| 5.4.99.5 | Chorismate |
shikimate pathway in bacteria, fungi and higher plants that leads to tyrosine and phenylalanine |
