6.3.4.13 | metabolism |
Pur2,5 encodes a bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the second and the fifth steps of de novo purine biosynthesis pathway andshows dual enzymatic activity - of glycinamide ribotide synthetase and of aminoim-idazole ribotide synthetase |

6.3.4.13 | 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 |

6.3.4.13 | 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 |
