Predicted to enable phosphoribosylamine-glycine ligase activity and phosphoribosylformylglycinamidine cyclo-ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in adenine biosynthetic process and purine nucleotide biosynthetic process. Located in cytoplasm. Orthologous to human GART (phosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase, phosphoribosylglycinamide synthetase, phosphoribosylaminoimidazole synthetase).
SGD Description
Bifunctional enzyme of 'de novo' purine nucleotide pathway; contains both phosphoribosylglycinamidine synthetase/glycinamide ribotide synthetase (EC 6.3.4.13) ["Ade5"] and phosphoribosylaminoimidazole synthetase/aminoimidazole ribotide synthetase (EC 6.3.3.1) ["Ade7"] activities
