Weaver, LM and Herrmann, KM (1990) Cloning of an aroF allele encoding a tyrosine-insensitive 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate synthase. J. Bacteriol. 172:6581-4

Abstract

In Escherichia coli, genes aroF+, aroG+, and aroH+ encode isoenzymes of 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate synthases that are feedback inhibited by tyrosine, phenylalanine, and tryptophan, respectively. A single base pair change in aroF causes a Pro-148-to-Leu-148 substitution and results in a tyrosine-insensitive enzyme.
