Identification
Name:5'-Phosphoribosyl-N-formylglycineamide
Description5'-Phosphoribosyl-N-formylglycineamide (also known as FGAR or N-Formyl-GAR) is a substrate for Phosphoribosylformylglycinamidine synthase. It is involved in aminoimidazole ribonucleotide biosynthesis and plays a vital role in purine metabolism as well as the conversion of glutamine to glutamate. 5'-Phosphoribosyl-N-formylglycineamide is described as a glycinamide ribonucleotide having a phosphate group at the 5-position and a formyl group on the glycine nitrogen.

Chemical Taxonomy
Description belongs to the class of organic compounds known as glycinamide ribonucleotides. Glycinamide ribonucleotides are compounds in which the amide N atom of glycineamide is linked to the C-1 of a ribosyl (or deoxyribosyl) moiety. Nucleotides have a phosphate group linked to the C5 carbon of the ribose (or deoxyribose) moiety.
