Shikimate 5-dehydrogenase (aroE); Involved in the biosynthesis of the chorismate, which leads to the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids. Catalyzes the reversible NADPH linked reduction of 3-dehydroshikimate (DHSA) to yield shikimate (SA).

5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3-phosphate synthase (aroA); Catalyzes the transfer of the enolpyruvyl moiety of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to the 5-hydroxyl of shikimate-3-phosphate (S3P) to produce enolpyruvyl shikimate-3-phosphate and inorganic phosphate.

Anthranilate synthase component II (trpD); Bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the second and fourth steps of tryptophan biosynthetic pathway. The second step is catalyzed by the anthranilate phosphoribosyltransferase, coded by the TrpD domain and the fourth step is catalyzed by indole-3-glycerol phosphate synthase, coded by the TrpC domain (By similarity).

Chorismate mutase/prephenate dehydratase (pheA); Similar to GB:L42023 SP:P43900 PID:1006481 PID:1221267 PID:1205390 percent identity: 32.15; identified by sequence similarity; putative.

Conserved hypothetical protein; Catalyzes a transaldol reaction between 6-deoxy-5- ketofructose 1-phosphate (DKFP) and L-aspartate semialdehyde (ASA) with an elimination of hydroxypyruvaldehyde phosphate to yield 2-amino-3,7- dideoxy-D-threo-hept-6-ulosonate (ADH). Plays a key role in an alternative pathway of the biosynthesis of 3-dehydroquinate (DHQ), which is involved in the canonical pathway for the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids.

Chorismate synthase (aroC); Catalyzes the anti-1,4-elimination of the C-3 phosphate and the C-6 proR hydrogen from 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate (EPSP) to yield chorismate, which is the branch point compound that serves as the starting substrate for the three terminal pathways of aromatic amino acid biosynthesis. This reaction introduces a second double bond into the aromatic ring system.

Anthranilate synthase component II (trpG); Part of a heterotetrameric complex that catalyzes the two- step biosynthesis of anthranilate, an intermediate in the biosynthesis of L-tryptophan. In the first step, the glutamine-binding beta subunit (TrpG) of anthranilate synthase (AS) provides the glutamine amidotransferase activity which generates ammonia as a substrate that, along with chorismate, is used in the second step, catalyzed by the large alpha subunit of AS (TrpE) to produce anthranilate. In the absence of TrpG, TrpE can synthesize anthranilate directly from chorismate and high [...]

Aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (asd); Catalyzes the NADPH-dependent formation of L-aspartate- semialdehyde (L-ASA) by the reductive dephosphorylation of L-aspartyl- 4-phosphate; Belongs to the aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase family.

Conserved hypothetical protein; Similar to SP:P54454 PID:1303790 GB:AL009126 percent identity: 33.90; identified by sequence similarity; putative.
