3-deoxy-7-phosphoheptulonate synthase
Members of this family are aldolase enzymes that catalyse the first step of the shikimate pathway. (from Pfam)
class II 3-deoxy-7-phosphoheptulonate synthase
This HMM represents the class II family of 3-deoxy-7-phosphoheptulonate synthase, aka phospho-2-dehydro-3-deoxyheptonate aldolase, as found in plants and some bacteria. It shows some similarity to the class I family found in many bacteria. The enzyme catalyzes the first of 7 steps in the biosynthesis of chorismate, that last common precursor of all three aromatic amino acids. Homologs scoring between trusted and noise cutoff include proteins involved in antibiotic biosynthesis; one example is active as this enzyme, while another acts on an amino analog.
3-deoxy-7-phosphoheptulonate synthase class II
3-deoxy-7-phosphoheptulonate (DAHP) synthase catalyzes the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate and D-erythrose 4-phosphate to DAHP and phosphate
