| phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (ATP) | <enzyme> An enzyme of the lyase class that catalyses the conversion of ATP and oxaloacetate to ADP, phosphoenolpyruvate, and carbon dioxide. The enzyme is found in some bacteria, yeast, and trypanosoma, and is important for the photosynthetic assimilation of carbon dioxide in some plants.

Synonym: acyl-malonyl-ACP synthase, beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adenylosuccinate synthase | <enzyme> A carbon-nitrogen ligase. During purine ribonucleotide biosynthesis, this enzyme catalyses the synthesis of adenylosuccinate from GTP, imp, and aspartate with the formation of orthophosphate and GDP. Chemical name: IMP:L-aspartate ligase (GDP-forming) Registry number: EC 6.3.4.4 (12 Dec 1998) |
