We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

'''DAHP synthase''' or '''3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate synthase''' (DAHPS) catalyzes the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) and D-erythrose 4-phosphate to 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate (DAHP) and phosphate. DAHPS is part of the shikimate pathway. DAHPS requires a bivalent metal ion cofactor for normal activity. <scene name='70/708806/Cv/6'>DAHPS is a tetramer</scene>. DAHPS exhibits feedback inhibition by aromatic amino acids like tyrosine, phenylalanine and tryptophan.<ref>PMID:1682314</ref>
