Serine hydroxymethyltransferase; Catalyzes the reversible interconversion of serine and glycine with tetrahydrofolate (THF) serving as the one-carbon carrier. This reaction serves as the major source of one-carbon groups required for the biosynthesis of purines, thymidylate, methionine, and other important biomolecules. Also exhibits THF-independent aldolase activity toward beta-hydroxyamino acids, producing glycine and aldehydes, via a retro-aldol mechanism.

Tryptophan synthase alpha chain; The alpha subunit is responsible for the aldol cleavage of indoleglycerol phosphate to indole and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. Belongs to the TrpA family.

Threonine dehydratase.

Threonine dehydratase; Catalyzes the anaerobic formation of alpha-ketobutyrate and ammonia from threonine in a two-step reaction. The first step involved a dehydration of threonine and a production of enamine intermediates (aminocrotonate), which tautomerizes to its imine form (iminobutyrate). Both intermediates are unstable and short-lived. The second step is the nonenzymatic hydrolysis of the enamine/imine intermediates to form 2- ketobutyrate and free ammonia. In the low water environment of the cell, the second step is accelerated by RidA.

Serine O-acetyltransferase.

D-serine dehydratase; Belongs to the serine/threonine dehydratase family. DsdA subfamily.

HAD superfamily hydrolase.

Tryptophan synthase beta chain; The beta subunit is responsible for the synthesis of L- tryptophan from indole and L-serine.

Aspartate racemase; Belongs to the aspartate/glutamate racemases family.
