The Chorismate pathway
Chorismate Is Synthesized from PEP and Erythrose-4-P. Chorismate biosynthesis occurs via the shikimate pathway (Figure 25.36). The precursors for this pathway are the common metabolic intermediates phosphoenolpyruvate and erythrose-4-phosphate. These intermediates are linked to form 3-deoxy-d-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate (DAHP) by DAHP synthase
