additional information | zygotic gart and paic mutants have pigmentation defects in which xanthophore and iridophore pigmentation is almost completely absent, and melanin-derived pigmentation is significantly decreased, even though pigment cells are present in normal amounts and distributions. Zygotic gart and paics mutants are also microphthalmic, resulting from defects in cell cycle exit of proliferative retinoblasts within the developing eye, severe phenotypes, overview | Danio rerio |

malfunction | gart and paics mutants have pigmentation defects and microphthalmia | Danio rerio |
metabolism | the trifunctional enzyme catalyzes steps 2, 3, and 5 of inosine monophosphate synthesis, followed by paics encoded phosphoribosylaminoimidazole carboxylase and phosphoribosylaminoimidazole succinocarboxamide synthetase, a bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes steps 6 and 7 of this process. Crucial requirement for maternally derived gart and paics. De novo purine synthesis pathway, overview | Danio rerio |
physiological function | gart and paics function are required for eye growth. IMP feeds into an ATP pathway required for retinoblast proliferation and a GTP pathway required for pigmentation | Danio rerio |
