Description | This enzyme resembles some other chorismate-binding enzymes, including para-aminobenzoate synthase (pabB) and isochorismate synthase. There is a fairly deep split between two sets, seen in the pattern of gaps as well as in amino acid sequence differences. This group includes eukaryotes, archaea, and many bacterial lineages; sequences from the second group may resemble pabB more closely than other trpE from the other group. The other group includes Gram-negative proteobacteria such as Escherichia coli and Helicobacter pylori but also the Gram-positive organism Corynebacterium glutamicum, and is described by . | Name | Anthranilate synthase component I, PabB-like |
Short Name | Anth_synth_I_PabB | Type | Family |
