This feature is part of a subsystem
  • In Branched-Chain Amino Acid Biosynthesis its role is Ketol-acid reductoisomerase (EC 1.1.1.86).
  • In Coenzyme A Biosynthesis its role is Ketol-acid reductoisomerase (EC 1.1.1.86).

    • Reasons for Current Assignment

    We have assigned the function "Ketol-acid reductoisomerase (EC 1.1.1.86)" to the encoded protein. The protein occurs in 2 subsystems: "Branched-Chain Amino Acid Biosynthesis", and "Coenzyme A Biosynthesis". In "Branched-Chain Amino Acid Biosynthesis", it occurs in close proximity on the chromosome with 2 other genes from the same subsystem. The function of genes having the same functional roles have been described in Lactococcus lactis (1400210), Corynebacterium glutamicum (8173081, 8366043), Neurospora crassa (1398116), Arabidopsis thaliana (8379936, 8448371), Streptomyces avermitilis (8529876) and Sinorhizobium meliloti (1744032). These are homologous proteins which implement the same function.

    Compare Regions

    The chromosomal region of the focus gene (top) is compared with four similar organisms. The graphic is centered on the focus gene, which is red and numbered 1. Sets of genes with similar sequence are grouped with the same number and color. Genes whose relative position is conserved in at least four other species are functionally coupled and share gray background boxes. The size of the region and the number of genomes may be reset. Click on any arrow in the display to refocus the comparison on that gene. The focus gene always points to the right, even if it is located on the minus strand.
