4-phosphopantoate—beta-alanine ligase (EC 6.3.2.36 phosphopantothenate synthetase TK1686 protein) is an enzyme with system name (R)-4-phosphopantoate:beta-alanine ligase (AMP-forming). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction ATP + (R)-4-phosphopantoate + beta-alanine AMP + diphosphate + (R)-4′-phosphopantothenateThe conversion of (R)-pantoate to (R)-4′-phosphopantothenate is part of the pathway leading to biosynthesis of 4′-phosphopantetheine.
