4-hydroxy-tetrahydrodipicolinate synthase; Catalyzes the condensation of (S)-aspartate-beta-semialdehyde [(S)-ASA] and pyruvate to 4-hydroxy-tetrahydrodipicolinate (HTPA).

2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate N-succinyltransferase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the transferase hexapeptide repeat family.

Diaminopimelate decarboxylase; Specifically catalyzes the decarboxylation of meso- diaminopimelate (meso-DAP) to L-lysine.

Outer membrane assembly protein BamE; Part of the outer membrane protein assembly complex, which is involved in assembly and insertion of beta-barrel proteins into the outer membrane.

Aspartate kinase; Catalyzes the formation of 4-phospho-L-aspartate from L-aspartate and ATP, in Bacillus, lysine sensitive; regulated by response to starvation; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the aspartokinase family.

Amino-acid N-acetyltransferase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the acetyltransferase family. ArgA subfamily.

Molecular chaperone DnaJ; Participates actively in the response to hyperosmotic and heat shock by preventing the aggregation of stress-denatured proteins and by disaggregating proteins, also in an autonomous, DnaK-independent fashion. Unfolded proteins bind initially to DnaJ; upon interaction with the DnaJ-bound protein, DnaK hydrolyzes its bound ATP, resulting in the formation of a stable complex. GrpE releases ADP from DnaK; ATP binding to DnaK triggers the release of the substrate protein, thus completing the reaction cycle. Several rounds of ATP-dependent interactions between DnaJ, [...]

Diaminopimelate epimerase; Catalyzes the stereoinversion of LL-2,6-diaminoheptanedioate (L,L-DAP) to meso-diaminoheptanedioate (meso-DAP), a precursor of L- lysine and an essential component of the bacterial peptidoglycan.
