Identification
Name:Phosphoribosylformylglycineamidine
Description5-Phosphoribosyl-n-formylglycineamidine is part of the 5-aminoimidazole ribonucleotide biosynthesis pathway. 5-amino-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole (AIR) is a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of purine nocleotides and thiamine. It is synthesized from 5-phospho-alpha-D-ribose 1-diphosphate (PRPP) in 5 steps, catalyzed by the enzymes amidophosphoribosyl transferase, phosphoribosylamine-glycine ligase, phosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase, phosphoribosylformylglycinamide synthetase and phosphoribosylformylglycinamide cyclo-ligase.
