Description: Imidazole acetol-phosphate is involved in the histidine biosynthesis pathway. Imidazole acetol-phosphate is created by the breakdown of D-erythro-imidazole-glycerol-phosphate into imidazole acetol-phosphate and H2O. Imidazoleglycerol-phosphate dehydratase catalyzes this reaction.

Description: Isopropylmaleate is an intermediate in branched chain amino acid metabolism (specifically L-leucine biosynthesis). It is a substrate for 3-isopropylmalate dehydratase. This enzyme catalyzes the isomerization between 2-isopropylmalate and 3-isopropylmalate, via the formation of 2-isopropylmaleate.

Description: L-Aspartate-semialdehyde is involved in both the lysine biosynthesis and homoserine biosynthesis pathways.

Description: L-Aspartyl-4-phosphate is involved in both the lysine biosynthesis and homoserine biosynthesis pathways.

Description: N-Succinyl-2-amino-6-ketopimelate is an intermediate in lysine biosynthesis. It is the fourth to last step in n the synthesis of lysine and is converted from tetrahydrodipicolinate via the enzyme tetrahydrodipicolinate N-succinyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.117). It is then converted to N-succinyl-L,L-2,6-diaminopimelate via the enzyme Succinyldiaminopimelate transferase (EC 2.6.1.17).

Description: N-Succinyl-L,L-2,6-diaminopimelate is an intermediate in lysine biosynthesis. It is the third to last step in the synthesis of lysine and is converted from N-Succinyl-2-amino-6-ketopimelate via the enzyme succinyldiaminopimelate transferase (EC 2.6.1.17). It is then converted to L,L-diaminopimelate via the enzyme succinyl-diaminopimelate desuccinylase (EC 3.5.1.18).

Description: Phosphoribosylformiminoaicar-phosphate is a member of the chemical class known as 1-Phosphoribosyl-imidazolecarboxamides. These are organic compounds containing the imidazolecarboxamide linked to a ribose phosphate through a 1-2 bond.

Description: Phosphoribulosylformimino-aicar-p is a member of the chemical class known as 1-Phosphoribosyl-imidazolecarboxamides. These are organic compounds containing the imidazolecarboxamide linked to a ribose phosphate through a 1-2 bond. PRFAR is catalyzed by imidazole glycerol phosphate syntahse. Imidazole glycerol phosphate (IGP) synthase is a glutamine amidotransferase that catalyzes the formation of IGP and 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide (AICAR) from N(1)-[(5'-phosphoribulosyl)formimino]-5-aminoimidazole-4-car boxamide ribonucleotide (PRFAR). (PMID 10733892). 5-((5-phospho-1-deoxyribulos-1-ylamino)methylideneamino)-1-(5-phosphoribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamide is an intermediate in the histidine biosynthesis pathway. It is a substrate for the enzyme 1-(5-phosphoribosyl)-5-[(5-phosphoribosylamino)methylideneamino] imidazole-4-carboxamide isomerase which catalyzes the reaction 1-(5-phosphoribosyl)-5-((5-phosphoribosylamino)methylideneamino)imidazole-4-carboxamide = 5-((5-phospho-1-deoxyribulos-1-ylamino)methylideneamino)-1-(5-phosphoribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamide.

Description: Prephenic acid, more commonly known by its anionic form prephenate, is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of the aromatic amino acids phenylalanine and tyrosine.

Description: Tetrahydrodipicolinate is involved in amino-acid biosynthesis, specifically L-lysine biosynthesis via the DAP pathway
