MetaCyc Pathway: glutathione biosynthesis in Escherichia coli ECRC101

Add experiment(s):


Glutamate--cysteine ligase:

MCAODC_11285 (gshA)
MCAODC_26870 (ybdK)
Glutathione synthase:
γ-L-glutamyl-L-cysteine + ATP + glycine→glutathione + ADP + H+ + phosphate (EC 6.3.2.3)
MCAODC_09795 (gshB)

Candidate genes for each reaction are identified from best hits to MetaCyc; by matching EC numbers (which are assigned by TIGRFam, SEED, or best hits to KEGG); or by matching SEED roles to KEGG reactions to MetaCyc reactions. See the "Protein" tab of each gene for more information
