ILVBL ilvB acetolactate synthase like

Gene ID: 10994, updated on 3-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: AHAS; 209L8; HACL2; ILV2H; HACL1L

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene shares similarity with several thiamine pyrophosphate-binding proteins identified in bacteria, yeast, and plants. The highest degree of similarity is found with bacterial acetolactate synthases (AHAS), which are enzymes that catalyze the first step in branched-chain amino acid biosynthesis.
