Sysname
[amino-group carrier protein]-C-terminal-L-glutamate:L-2-aminoadipate ligase (ADP-forming)
Reaction(IUBMB)
ATP + an [amino-group carrier protein]-C-terminal-L-glutamate + L-2-aminoadipate = ADP + phosphate + an [amino-group carrier protein]-C-terminal-[N-(1,4-dicarboxybutyl)-L-glutamine]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
ATP [CPD:
C00002 ];
[amino-group carrier protein]-C-terminal-L-glutamate;
L-2-aminoadipate [CPD:
C00956 ]
Product
ADP [CPD:
C00008 ];
phosphate [CPD:
C00009 ];
[amino-group carrier protein]-C-terminal-[N-(1,4-dicarboxybutyl)-L-glutamine]
Comment
The enzymes from the thermophilic bacterium Thermus thermophilus and the thermophilic archaea Sulfolobus acidocaldarius and Sulfolobus tokodaii protect the amino group of L-2-aminoadipate by conjugation to the carrier protein LysW. This reaction is part of the lysine biosynthesis pathway in these organisms.
