Shikimate Biosynthesis

Shikimate Biosynthesis is a metabolic pathway constituting the biochemical process by which the aromatic amino acid precursor shikimate is synthesized from phosphoenolpyruvate and erythrose-4-phosphate in plants, bacteria, and fungi, distinguishing it from alternative routes of aromatic compound formation through its unique sequence of seven enzymatic steps.
