Protein Domain : IPR011872

Type:  Family Name:  Homocitrate synthase, fungi/archaea
Description:  This entry includes the yeast LYS21 gene which carries out the first step of the alpha-aminoadipate (AAA) lysine biosynthesis pathway [, ]. A related pathway is found in Thermus thermophilus[]. This enzyme is closely related to 2-isopropylmalate synthase (LeuA) and citramalate synthase (CimA), both of which are present in the euryarchaeota. Some archaea have a separate homocitrate synthase (AksA) which also synthesizes longer homocitrate analogs []. Short Name:  Homocitrate_synth_fun/arc
