Description of YER099C: 5-phospho-ribosyl-1(alpha)-pyrophosphate synthetase, synthesizes PRPP, which is required for nucleotide, histidine, and tryptophan biosynthesis; one of five related enzymes, which are active as heteromultimeric complexes; PRS2 has a paralog, PRS4, that arose from the whole genome duplication[1][2][3]
