purT curation notes
- UniProt identifies Q88MW1 as Formate-dependent phosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase [file:PSEPK/purT/purT-uniprot.txt "RecName: Full=Formate-dependent phosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase"].
- PurT uses formate, ATP, and GAR rather than the folate-bound donor used by PurN
PMID:8117714.
- Remove
GO:0004644 and GO:0016742: they place the EC 6.3.1.21 C-N ligase in
folate-dependent transferase chemistry. Replace the generic catalytic/process terms
with GO:0043815 and GO:0006189; retain nucleotide, ATP, magnesium, and metal
binding as non-core.
- Open question: Under which carbon and folate conditions does PurT rather than PurN provide most GAR transformylase flux?
