Lysine and arginine biosyntheses mediated by a common carrier protein in Sulfolobus
One pathway for lysine biosynthesis uses a carrier protein, LysW, to protect the substrate. LysW is now shown to mediate entry of a second substrate into the same metabolic pathway, with structural and biochemical evidence identifying an amino acid motif that determines substrate specificity. LysW h...
