Gene function · Related strain

Arabinose metabolism

AraA converts L-arabinose to L-ribulose, the first enzymatic step of its degradation pathway.

Study strain: K-12 MG1655

Conditions: Function annotation does not establish the effect of an arbitrary base substitution. BW25113 already lacks araBAD.

NCBI Gene: araA (b0062)
