| Type: | Family | Name: | Formiminoglutamate deiminase |
| Description: | In some species, histidine utilisation goes via urocanate to glutamate in four step, the last being removal of formamide. This entry describes an alternate fourth step, formiminoglutamate hydrolase, which leads to N-formyl-L-glutamate. This product may be acted on by formylglutamate amidohydrolase () and bypass glutamate as a product during its degradation. Alternatively, removal of formate (by ) would yield glutamate. | Short Name: | HutF |
