The shikimate pathway and its branches in apicomplexan parasites

, 2002
The shikimate pathway is essential for production of a plethora of aromatic compounds in plants, bacteria, and fungi. Seven enzymes of the shikimate pathway catalyze sequential conversion of erythrose 4-phosphate and phosphoenol pyruvate to chorismate ...

The conserved Lysine69 residue plays a catalytic role in Mycobacterium tuberculosis shikimate dehydrogenase

BMC Research Notes, 2009
Background The shikimate pathway is an attractive target for the development of antitubercular agents because it is essential in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, but absent in humans. M. tuberculosis aroE-encoded shikimate

Structural basis for shikimate-binding specificity of Helicobacter pylori shikimate kinase

, 2010
[[abstract]]Shikimate kinase (EC 2.7.1.71) catalyzes the specific phosphorylation of the 3-hydroxyl group of shikimic acid in the presence of ATP. As the fifth key step in the shikimate pathway for aromatic amino acid biosynthesis in bacteria, fungi, and

Studies on the Genes for the Enzymes of the Shikimate Pathway From Pisum sativum [PDF]

, 1989
Aromatic compounds are synthesised via the shikimate pathway. The fungal pentafunctional arom enzyme has five shikimate pathway activities on one polypeptide chain whereas in bacteria, all seven activities are separate enzymes.
