Genome Property Definition Page
Accession | GenProp0309 | |
Name | arginine catabolism to glutamate via arginine succinyltransferase (AST) | |
Type | PATHWAY | |
Description | The AST pathway converts the carbon skeleton of arginine into glutamate, with the concomitant production of ammonia and conversion of succinyl-CoA to succinate and CoA. | |
JCVI Role | Amino acids and amines | |
Parent Property | GenProp0734: amino acid catabolism | |
