Chorismic acid is a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids (tryptophan, phenylalanine, and tyrosine) and a variety of secondary metabolites in bacteria, fungi, and plants. It is a branched-chain compound with a cyclohexa-1,5-diene structure, derived from the shikimate pathway. Chorismic acid serves as a branch point in the shikimate pathway, leading to the synthesis of aromatic amino acids and other metabolites. It is a highly reactive molecule that undergoes enzymatic transformations to generate a variety of products. The study of chorismic acid and its metabolic pathways is important for understanding the biosynthesis of essential amino acids and the production of various bioactive compounds. Its biosynthesis is the target of several herbicides and antibiotics that inhibit the production of aromatic amino acids in bacteria. Research on chorismic acid has led to the development of new strategies for the production of valuable compounds through synthetic biology approaches.'

Vitamin B9 refers to the many forms of folic acid and its derivatives, including tetrahydrofolic acid (the active form), methyltetrahydrofolate (the primary form found in blood), methenyltetrahydrofolate, folinic acid amongst others. They are present in abundance in green leafy vegetables, citrus fruits, and animal products. Lack of vitamin B9 leads to anemia, a condition in which the body cannot produce sufficient number of red blood cells. Symptoms of vitamin B9 deficiency include fatigue, muscle weakness, and pale skin. | 3.86 | 3 | 0 | folic acids; N-acyl-amino acid | human metabolite; mouse metabolite; nutrient |

| Infections, Plasmodium [description not available] | 0 | 2.17 | 1 | 0 |
| Malaria A protozoan disease caused in humans by four species of the PLASMODIUM genus: PLASMODIUM FALCIPARUM; PLASMODIUM VIVAX; PLASMODIUM OVALE; and PLASMODIUM MALARIAE; and transmitted by the bite of an infected female mosquito of the genus ANOPHELES. Malaria is endemic in parts of Asia, Africa, Central and South America, Oceania, and certain Caribbean islands. It is characterized by extreme exhaustion associated with paroxysms of high FEVER; SWEATING; shaking CHILLS; and ANEMIA. Malaria in ANIMALS is caused by other species of plasmodia. | 0 | 2.17 | 1 | 0 |
