para-aminobenzoate (PABA) synthase family protein;(source:Araport11)
TAIR Curator Summary:
ADCS encodes a protein that has two functional domains. The N-terminal domain has glutamine amidotransferase activity while the C-terminal domain has aminodeoxychorismate synthase (ADCS) activity. These two domains act together to catalyze the transformation of chorismate to 4-amino-4-deoxychorismate. This reaction is required for 4-aminobenzoate (pABA) production and ultimately for folate biosynthesis. The putative target peptide of ADCS can direct GFP to the chloroplast.
