EspañolCHORISMIC ACID
(Redirected from Chorismate)
'Chorismic acid', more commonly known as its anionic form 'chorismate', is an important biochemical intermediate in plants and microorganisms. It is a precursor for:
★ The aromatic amino acids phenylalanine and tyrosine
★ Indole, indole derivatives and tryptophan
★ 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) used for enterobactin biosynthesis
★ The plant hormone salicylic acid[1]
★ Many alkaloids and other aromatic metabolites.
Shikimate → shikimate-3-phosphate → 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate → chorismate.
★ Shikimate and chorismate biosynthesis
