2.7.2.19

Accepted name:

[amino-group carrier protein]-L-glutamate 6-kinase

Reaction:

ATP + an [amino-group carrier protein]-C-terminal-γ-(L-glutamyl)-L-glutamate = ADP + an [amino-group carrier protein]-C-terminal-γ-(5-phospho-L-glutamyl)-L-glutamate

Other name(s):

lysZ (gene name)

Systematic name:

[amino-group carrier protein]-C-terminal-γ-(L-glutamyl)-L-glutamine 5-O-kinase

Comments:

The enzyme participates in an L-arginine biosynthetic pathway in certain species of archaea. In some organisms the enzyme also catalyses the activity of EC 2.7.2.17, [amino-group carrier protein]-L-2-aminoadipate 6-kinase.
