A new class EC 7, Translocases, has been added to the EC list. It will be part of ENZYME from release 2018_10. Read more about EC 7 here.

ENZYME entry: EC 2.7.2.4

Accepted Name
Aspartate kinase.
Alternative Name(s)
Aspartokinase.
Reaction catalysed
ATP + L-aspartate <=> ADP + 4-phospho-L-aspartate
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme from Escherichia coli is a multifunctional protein, which also catalyzes the reaction of EC 1.1.1.3.
  • This is also the case for two of the four isoenzymes in Arabidopsis thaliana.
  • The equilibrium constant strongly favors the reaction from right to left, i.e. the non-physiological direction of reaction.
