OsASA2

Gene
OsASA2
Protein
Anthranilate synthase alpha subunit 2, chloroplastic
Organism
Oryza sativa subsp. japonica
Length
606 amino acids
Function
Part of a heterotetrameric complex that catalyzes the two-step biosynthesis of anthranilate, an intermediate in the biosynthesis of L-tryptophan. In the first step, the glutamine-binding beta subunit of anthranilate synthase (AS) provides the glutamine amidotransferase activity which generates ammonia as a substrate that, along with chorismate, is used in the second step, catalyzed by the large alpha subunit of AS to produce anthranilate.
Similarity
Belongs to the anthranilate synthase component I family.
