Function

SAICAR synthetase (SAI) or phosphoribosylaminoimidazole-succinocarboxamide synthetase is part of the purine biosynthesis. SAI catalyzes ATP-dependent ligation of carboxyaminoimidazole ribotide (AICAR) with aspartate[1].

Structural highlights

SAI structure shows . The between the 2 domains and contains , and [2]. Residues are colored according to Hydrophobic, Polar. Water molecules shown as red spheres.
