'''Phosphoribosylaminoimidazole carboxylase (PurE)''' is part of the purine biosynthesis and catalyses the reversible conversion of N5-carboxyaminoimidazole ribonucleotide (N5-CAIR) to 5-aminoimidazole ribonucleotide (AIR). In E. coli PurE is an independent enzyme while in plants and fungi it is a domain of phosphoribosylaminoimidazole carboxylase. | '''Phosphoribosylaminoimidazole carboxylase (PurE)''' is part of the purine biosynthesis and catalyses the reversible conversion of N5-carboxyaminoimidazole ribonucleotide (N5-CAIR) to 5-aminoimidazole ribonucleotide (AIR).
