Identification
HMDB Protein ID HMDBP12971
Secondary Accession Numbers None
Name Chorismate synthase
Synonyms
  1. CS
  2. 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate phospholyase
Gene Name AROC
Protein Type Unknown
Biological Properties
General Function Not Available
Specific Function 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.
Pathways
