Abstract

The five enzymes that catalyzing steps two through six in the prechorismate polyaromatic amino acid biosynthetic pathway are physically associated and have been purified up to 400-fold from Schizosaccharomyces pombe. The native arom aggregate has a molecular weight of approx. 140,000-145,000 based on gel filtration, glycerol-density-gradient centrifugation, and polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate. Similarities between the S. pombe arom aggregate and that of Neurospora crassa and Euglena gracilis are discussed.
