Namephenylalanine biosynthesis from chorismate
TypePATHWAY
DescriptionThe aromatic amino acid phenylalanine is synthesized via a three step pathway from chorismate. The first two steps, isomerization of chorismate to prephenate and dehydration of prephenate to phenylpyruvate are modelled by specific HMMs. The third step, transamination of phenylpyruvate to form phenylalanine has not been ascribed to a specific transaminase in non-mammals. The YES state for this pathway is therefore indicative of the presence of the two characterized steps.
