Imidazole glycerol phosphate synthase subunit

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.
