| Accession | GenProp0219 |
| Name | spermidine biosynthesis from arginine (via agmatine) |
| Type | METAPATH |
| Description | This pathway uses arginine decarboxylase followed by agmatinase (agmatine ureohydrolase) instead of arginase (arginine ureohydrolase) followed by ornithine decarboxylase to get to putrescine, the immediate precursor of sperimidine. One of several possible arginine degradation pathways (see role_id 109) continues 3) putrescine transaminase 4) pyrroline dehydrogenase 5) glutamate-succinic semialdehyde transaminase 6) succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase. |
