GENE NAME
Imidazole glycerol phosphate synthase subunit
ORGANISM
Mycobacterium ulcerans (strain Agy99)
GENE NAME
hisH
GENE ID
4552311
TDR TARGET ID
955227
PROTEIN LENGTH
201
ASSOCIATED METABOLIC PATHWAYS
Histidine metabolism
FUNCTION
IGPS catalyzes the conversion of PRFAR and glutamine to IGP, AICAR and glutamate. The HisH subunit catalyzes the hydrolysis of glutamine to glutamate and ammonia as part of the synthesis of IGP and AICAR. The resulting ammonia molecule is channeled to the active site of HisF.
