In enzymology, a phosphoribosylanthranilate isomerase (EC 5.3.1.24) is an enzyme that catalyzes the third step of tryptophan biosynthesis.[1]

This enzyme participates in the phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis pathway.

In yeast it is encoded by the TRP1 gene.[2]

Reaction

N-(5-phospho-beta-D-ribosyl)anthranilate 1-(2-carboxyphenylamino)-1-deoxy-D-ribulose 5-phosphate

In other words, this enzyme has one substrate, N-(5-phospho-beta-D-ribosyl)anthranilate, and one product, 1-(2-carboxyphenylamino)-1-deoxy-D-ribulose 5-phosphate.

Nomenclature

This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases, specifically those intramolecular oxidoreductases interconverting aldoses and ketoses. The systematic name of this enzyme class is N-(5-phospho-beta-D-ribosyl)anthranilate aldose-ketose-isomerase. Other names in common use include:

  • PRA isomerase,
  • PRAI,
  • IGPS:PRAI (indole-3-glycerol-phosphate,
  • synthetase/N-5'-phosphoribosylanthranilate isomerase complex), and
  • N-(5-phospho-beta-D-ribosyl)anthranilate ketol-isomerase.

Structural

Phosphoribosylanthranilate isomerase (PRAI) is monomeric and labile in most mesophilic microorganisms, but dimeric and stable in the hyperthermophile Thermotoga maritima (tPRAI).[3] The comparison to the known 2.0 A structure of PRAI from Escherichia coli (ePRAI) shows that tPRAI has a TIM-barrel fold, whereas helix alpha5 in ePRAI is replaced by a loop. The subunits of tPRAI associate via the N-terminal faces of their central beta-barrels. Two long, symmetry-related loops that protrude reciprocally into cavities of the other subunit provide for multiple hydrophobic interactions. Moreover, the side chains of the N-terminal methionines and the C-terminal leucines of both subunits are immobilized in a hydrophobic cluster, and the number of salt bridges is increased in tPRAI. These features appear to be mainly responsible for the high thermostability of tPRAI.[4]
