'''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 bacteria PurE and PurK or '''Phosphoribosylaminoimidazole carboxylase ATPase subunit''' are independent enzymes while in plants and fungi it is a domain of phosphoribosylaminoimidazole carboxylase<ref>PMID:1534690</ref>. '''PurK''' catalyzes the conversion of AIR,ATP and bicarbonate to N5-CAIR, ADP and phosphate.
