Updated annotation (from data): aromatic-amino-acid transaminase (EC 2.6.1.57) Rationale: Required for utilization of phenylalanine or tyrosine as the sole nitrogen source (PMID:38323821). Has phenotypes on a variety of carbon sources, which probably indicates a (partly genetically-redundant) biosynthetic role as well. May also act on isoleucine or on 2-aminoadipate, as part of pipecolate degradation (PMC9004399). Was previously proposed to be D-lysine aminotransferase, but is not important for utilizing D-lysine (PMID:38323821). 71% identical to E. coli tyrB. Original annotation: D-lysine aminotransferase Type 1: Protein-coding gene Located on scaffold AE015451, - strand, nucleotides 4,079,580 to 4,080,776 See nucleotide sequence around PP_3590 or for all of scaffold AE015451
