Gene nameRBKS
Protein nameRibokinase (RK) (EC 2.7.1.15)
Ribokinase
SynonymsRBSK
DescriptionFUNCTION: Catalyzes the phosphorylation of ribose at O-5 in a reaction requiring ATP and magnesium. The resulting D-ribose-5-phosphate can then be used either for sythesis of nucleotides, histidine, and tryptophan, or as a component of the pentose phosphate pathway. .
