چکیده

In Escherichia coli, genes aroF+, aroG+, and aroH+ encode isoenzymes of 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate synthases that are feedback inhibited by tyrosine, phenylalanine, and tryptophan, respectively. A single base pair change in aroF causes a Pro-148-to-Leu-148 substitution and results in a tyrosine-insensitive enzyme.

Regulation of the aromatic pathway in the cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. strain Pcc6301 (Anacystis nidulans).

A pattern of allosteric control for aromatic biosynthesis in cyanobacteria relies upon early-pathway regulation as the major control point for the entire branched pathway. In Synechococcus sp. strain PCC6301 (Anacystis nidulans), two enzymes which form precursors for L-phenylalanine biosynthesis are subject to control by feedback inhibition. 3-Deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate synthase ...

Mutational analysis of the catalytic and feedback sites of the tryptophan-sensitive 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate synthase of Escherichia coli.

The nucleotide sequence of aroH, the structural gene for the tryptophan-sensitive 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate synthase [DAHPS(Trp)], is presented, and the deduced amino acid sequence of AroH is compared with that of the tyrosine-sensitive (AroF) and phenylalanine-sensitive (AroG) DAHPS isoenzymes. The high degree of sequence similarity among the three isoenzymes strongly indicat...

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate synthase (tyrosine inhibitable) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

3-Deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate synthase (E.C. 4.1.2.15) catalyses the first step in the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids: the condensation of phophoenolpyruvate and erythrose 4-phosphate to 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate. Diffraction-quality crystals of the tyrosine-inhibitable form of the enzyme from Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been obtained by the hanging-drop ...

A pair of regulatory isozymes for 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate synthase is conserved within group I pseudomonads.

Two closely related subgroups of group I pseudomonads, which differ from one another in the overall enzymatic makeup of aromatic amino acid biosynthesis, possess in common the recently characterized major (tyrosine-sensitive) and minor (tryptophan-sensitive) isozymes of 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate synthase of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (17). Since these characterizations were made f...
