Comment typeDescription
Catalytic Activity5-[(5-phospho-1-deoxyribulos-1- ylamino)methylideneamino]-1-(5-phosphoribosyl)imidazole-4- carboxamide + L-glutamine = imidazole-glycerol phosphate + 5- aminoimidazol-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide + L-glutamate + H(2)O.
FunctionIGPS catalyzes the conversion of PRFAR and glutamine to IGP, AICAR and glutamate. The glutamine amidotransferase domain provides the ammonia necessary to the cyclase domain to produce IGP and AICAR from PRFAR.
PathwayAmino-acid biosynthesis; L-histidine biosynthesis; L- histidine from 5-phospho-alpha-D-ribose 1-diphosphate: step 5/9.
SimilarityContains 1 glutamine amidotransferase type-1 domain. {ECO:0000305}.
SimilarityIn the C-terminal section; belongs to the HisA/HisF family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationPlastid, chloroplast.
