Protein attributes
| Sequence length | 544 AA. |
| Sequence status | Complete. |
| Sequence processing | The displayed sequence is further processed into a mature form. |
| Protein existence | Evidence at protein level |
General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Involved in the first step of essential amino acids lysine, threonine, methionine and isoleucine synthesis via the aspartate-family pathway. |
| Catalytic activity | ATP + L-aspartate = ADP + 4-phospho-L-aspartate. |
| Enzyme regulation | Allosterically inhibited by lysine, but not by S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM). K(0.5) for lysine in the presence of physiological concentrations of substrates is 12.5 µM. No inhibition by threonine or leucine and no activation or inhibition by alanine, cysteine, isoleucine, serine, valine, methionine, glutamine, asparagine, glutamic acid or arginine. Ref.5 |
| Pathway | Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-threonine biosynthesis; L-threonine from L-aspartate: step 1/5. |
| Subcellular location | Plastid › chloroplast Potential. |
| Tissue specificity | Expressed in stems, leaves, floral organs and young seedlings. Ref.1 |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the aspartokinase family. Contains 2 ACT domains. |
| Biophysicochemical properties | Kinetic parameters: K(cat) is 14.5/sec. KM=980 µM for ATP Ref.5 KM=1940 µM for aspartate |
