IUBMB Comments
This archaeal enzyme, characterized from the methanogen Methanocaldococcus jannaschii, catalyses a step in the synthesis of purine nucleotides. It differs from the orthologous bacterial/eukaryotic enzymes, which utilize 10-formyltetrahydrofolate rather than formate and ATP. cf. EC 2.1.2.3, phosphoribosylaminoimidazolecarboxamide formyltransferase.
