Shikimate kinase
Definition:
EC Tree > 2 Transferases > 2.7 Transferring phosphorus-containing groups > 2.7.1 Phosphotransferases with an alcohol group as acceptor > 2.7.1.71 shikimate kinase
Shikimate kinase is the aromatic-amino-acid-biosynthesis shikimate-pathway enzyme. It phosphorylates shikimate on the 3-hydroxyl, releasing ADP and 3-phosphoshikimate, the fifth step of the shikimate pathway that feeds chorismate, phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis. Expected in Bacteria, Eukaryota and Archaea.
