In enzymology an imidazoleacetate-phosphoribosyldiphosphate ligase (EC 6.3.4.8) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionATP + imidazole-4-acetate + 5-phosphoribosyl diphosphate ADP + phosphate + 1-(5-phosphoribosyl)imidazole-4-acetate + diphosphateThe 3 substrates of this enzyme are ATP imidazole-4-acetate and 5-phosphoribosyl diphosphate whereas its 4 products are ADP phosphate 1-(5-phosphoribosyl)imidazole-4-acetate and diphosphate.This enzyme belongs to the family of ligases specifically those forming generic carbon-nitrogen bonds.
