Contents

Lysine biosynthesis occurs in two ways: the diaminopimelate (DAP) pathway and the α-aminoadipate (AAA) pathway. The former is present in eubacteria, plants, and algae, whereas the latter was understood to be almost exclusive to fungi. The recent finding of the α-aminoadipate reductase (
AAR
) gene, one of the core genes of the AAA pathway, in...
