Function
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 (TrpG) 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 (TrpE) to produce anthranilate. In the absence of TrpG, TrpE can synthesize anthranilate directly from chorismate and high concentrations of ammonia (By similarity).
Catalytic activity
- chorismate + L-glutamine = anthranilate + pyruvate + L-glutamate + H+
Cofactor
Note: Binds 1 Mg2+ ion per subunit.
Activity regulation
Feedback inhibited by tryptophan.
Pathway
Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-tryptophan biosynthesis; L-tryptophan from chorismate: step 1/5.
