CD Definition:
Glutamine Amidotransferase (GATase_I) involved in pyridoxine biosynthesis; Glutamine Amidotransferase (GATase_I) involved in pyridoxine biosynthesis. Glutamine amidotransferase (GATase) activity involves the removal of the ammonia group from a glutamate molecule and its subsequent transfer to a specific substrate, thus creating a new carbon-nitrogen group on the substrate. This group contains proteins like Bacillus subtilus YaaE and Plasmodium falciparum Pdx2 which are members of the triad glutamine aminotransferase family and function in a pathway for the biosynthesis of vitamin B6.
