Description (originally from EcoCyc[1][2]) 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate hydroxymethyltransferase
Comments (originally from EcoCyc[1][2]) 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate hydroxymethyltransferase (KPHMT) catalyzes the first committed step of the pantothenate biosynthesis pathway. The product of the reaction, dehydropantoate is an essential precursor of pantothenate [3][3]
