Vitamin K is a lipid-soluble vitamin that functions as an essential cofactor for photosynthesis in plants and blood clotting in animals. In several bacteria, vitamin K2(menaquinones) are used in anaerobic fermentation in fumarate reduction. We are studying the biosynthetic pathway of vitamin K1(phylloquinone) in photosynthetic organisms. Prokaryotes and chloroplasts contain metabolic pathways to synthesize vitamin K. The genes for the enzymes involved in conversion of chorismate to menaquinone have been cloned in E. coli and Bacillus subtilis. The pathway of phylloquinone formation in chloroplasts is considered to be similar to the bacterial menaquinone synthesis pathway. 3, record 2, English, - menaquinone

The area cycle has several complex steps... the transfer of the second amino group to citrulline occurs by a condensation reaction between the amino group of aspartate and the carbonyl carbon of citrulline in the presence of ATP to form argininosuccinate. This reaction is catalyzed by argininosuccinate synthetase of the liver cytosol, a Mg2+-dependent enzyme.... In the next step argininosuccinate is reversibly cleaved by argininosuccinate lyase to form free arginine and fumarate. 1, record 6, English, - argininosuccinate%20lyase
