argI ornithine carbamoyltransferase ArgI [Escherichia coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655] - Gene

Summary

Official Symbol: argI
Official Full Name: ornithine carbamoyltransferase ArgI
Primary source: ECOCYC:EG10069
Locus tag: b4254
See related: ASAP:ABE-0013927
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: PROVISIONAL
Organism: Escherichia coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655 (strain: K-12, substrain: MG1655)
Lineage: Bacteria; Pseudomonadota; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia
Also known as: ECK4247
Summary: argI and argF have same enzyme activity. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG10069]. In the test tube, not in the cell, a family of four isoenzymes forms by assortment of two closely similar polypeptides, the chain F-monomer and chain I-monomer, to give active trimers FFF, FFI, FII, and III.
