General Information

General Information Comment Organism
additional information bifunctional enzyme complex, termed PAICS, harboring 5-aminoimidazole ribonucleotide carboxylase and 4-(N-succinylcarboxamide)-5-aminoimidazole ribonucleotide synthetase activities, the SAICAR active sites is located in the N-terminal domain of PAICS, structure modeling, overview. In addition to the basic loop responsible for phosphate-binding, the adenine-ribose moiety of the nucleotide sits in a largely hydrophobic pocket sandwiched between beta1-strands of the SAICAR domain Trichoplusia ni
