Chorismate synthase from malaria parasites is bifunctional enzyme.
    Molecular and biochemical parasitology, 2019, Volume: 233

    Chorismate synthase (Cs) is the last enzyme of the main trunk of shikimate pathway and catalyzes formation of chorismate, a major aromatic metabolite precursor. We have previously reported that Cs is highly conserved across different Plasmodium sp. Here we report that Cs from malaria parasites are bifunctional enzymes through expression and functional studies of two recombinant proteins rPfCs (Cs from P. falciparum) and rPvCs (Cs from P. vivax). We confirm bifunctional activity of both rPfCs and rPvCs based on their ability to catalyze formation of chorismate under aerobic conditions as well as their ability to catalyze generation of reduced flavin mononucleotide (FMN) as assessed through diaphorase assay.
