IPR004651

Description

IPR004651 is a Histidine biosynthesis, HisF.

<p>Histidine is formed by several complex and distinct biochemical reactions catalysed by eight enzymes. Proteins involved in steps 4 and 6 of the histidine biosynthesis pathway are contained in one family. These enzymes are called His6 and His7 in eukaryotes and HisA and HisF in prokaryotes [[cite:PUB00039276], [cite:PUB00081081], [cite:PUB00025531]]. HisA is a phosphoribosylformimino-5-aminoimidazole carboxamide ribonucleotide isomerase ([ec:5.3.1.16]), involved in the fourth step of histidine biosynthesis. The bacterial HisF protein is a cyclase which catalyzes the cyclization reaction that produces D-erythro-imidazole glycerol phosphate during the sixth step of histidine biosynthesis. HisF is also known as imidazole glycerol phosphate synthase [[cite:PUB00081080], [cite:PUB00081035], [cite:PUB00021977]]. The yeast His7 protein is a bifunctional protein which catalyzes an amido-transferase reaction that generates imidazole-glycerol phosphate and 5-aminoimidazol-4-carboxamide. The latter is the ribonucleotide used for purine biosynthesis. The enzyme also catalyzes the cyclization reaction that produces D-erythro-imidazole glycerol phosphate, and is involved in the fifth and sixth steps in histidine biosynthesis.</p> <p>This family describes the histidine biosynthesis protein, HisF.</p>
