COMMENTARY hide
LITERATURE
malfunction
metabolism
the enzyme is involved in the fungal de novo L-lysine biosynthesis via ATP- and NADPH-dependent reduction of the intermediate L-alpha-aminoadipic acid into L-alpha-aminoadipate 6-semialdehyde as a multifunctional aminoacyl-adenylate-forming reductase, pathway overview
physiological function
L-alpha-aminoadipic acid reductases catalyze the ATP- and NADPH-dependent reduction of L-alpha-aminoadipic acid to the corresponding 6-semialdehyde during fungal L-lysine biosynthesis
additional information
the enzyme has a multidomain composition but features a unique domain of elusive function, termed the adenylation activating (ADA) domain, that extends the reductase N-terminally. The activity of alpha-aminoadipate reductase and A domain depends on the N-terminally extending domain. ADA domain sequence comparison and protein interaction analysis, homology modeling, overview
