Forming carbon-nitrogen bonds;
Other carbon-nitrogen ligases
Sysname
dGMP:L-aspartate ligase (ADP-forming)
Reaction(IUBMB)
ATP + dGMP + L-aspartate = ADP + phosphate + 2-amino-2'-deoxy-N6-[(2S)-succino]adenylate [RN:R12786]
Reaction(KEGG)
R12786
Substrate
ATP [CPD:C00002];
dGMP [CPD:C00362];
L-aspartate [CPD:C00049]
Product
ADP [CPD:C00008];
phosphate [CPD:C00009];
2-amino-2'-deoxy-N6-[(2S)-succino]adenylate [CPD:C22395]
Comment
The enzyme, characterized from a number of bacteriophages, participates in the biosynthesis of dZTP, which replaces dATP in the genome of these phages.
