ADDITIONAL INFORMATION for HIS1

SUMMARY PARAGRAPH for HIS1

HIS1 encodes ATP phosphoribosyltransferase, which catalyzes the first step in histidine biosynthesis (5). The biosynthesis of histidine has been most extensively studied in Salmonella typhimurium and E. coli. The reactions and enzymes involved in histidine biosynthesis have been identified in many organisms, and are thoroughly reviewed in Alifano et al. (5). Mutations in HIS1, as well as in genes encoding other histidine biosynthetic enzymes, cause histidine auxotrophy and sensitivity to copper, cobalt, and nickel salts (4). Transcription of HIS1 is regulated by general amino acid control, in which the transcription factor Gcn4p plays a key role (reviewed in 6). The transcription factors Bas1p and Bas2p also activate HIS1 transcription (7).
