Description
In eubacteria, fungi and plants, this enzyme, along with EC 6.3.4.18, 5-(carboxyamino)imidazole ribonucleotide synthase, is required to carry out the single reaction catalysed by EC 4.1.1.21, phosphoribosylaminoimidazole carboxylase, in vertebrates. In the absence of EC 6.3.2.6, phosphoribosylaminoimidazolesuccinocarboxamide synthase, the reaction is reversible. The substrate is readily converted into 5-amino-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole by non-enzymic decarboxylation.
