EC 4.1.3.38

Names

Accepted name:
aminodeoxychorismate lyase
Other names:
4-amino-4-deoxychorismate lyase
enzyme X
ADC lyase
4-amino-4-deoxychorismate pyruvate-lyase
Systematic name:
4-amino-4-deoxychorismate pyruvate-lyase (4-aminobenzoate-forming)

Reaction

Cofactor

Comments:

A pyridoxal-phosphate protein. Forms part of the folate biosynthesis pathway. Acts on 4-amino-4-deoxychorismate, the product of EC 2.6.1.85, aminodeoxychorismate synthase, to form p-aminobenzoate.
