Definition of lysZ

• Curated proteins or TIGRFams with EC 2.7.2.19
• UniProt sequence Q5JFW2: RecName: Full=Putative [LysW]-aminoadipate/[LysW]-glutamate kinase {ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_02082}; EC=2.7.2.17 {ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_02082}; EC=2.7.2.19 {ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_02082};
• Predicted: UniProt sequence D4GYN9: RecName: Full=Putative [LysW]-aminoadipate/[LysW]-glutamate kinase {ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_02082}; EC=2.7.2.17 {ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_02082}; EC=2.7.2.19 {ECO:0000256|HAMAP-Rule:MF_02082};
• Comment: TK0276 from Thermococcus kodakarensis (Q5JFW2) is bifunctional, for lysine and ornithine synthesis (PMC5076833). In Haloferax volcanii, the putative [LysW]-glutamate kinase (HVO_RS04915, D4GYN9) is in a conserved operon with LysW and with other arginine synthesis genes; this protein is more similar to a characterized [LysW]-2-aminoadipate 6-kinase, but haloarchaea do not use the aminoadipate pathway (PMC93780, PMC8305020).
