The phosphoribosylamine-glycine ligase activity of cytosolic GART (trifunctional purine biosynthetic protein adenosine-3) catalyzes the reaction of 5-phosphoribosylamine, glycine, and ATP to form 5-phosphoribosylglycinamide (GAR), adenosine 5'-diphosphate, and orthophosphate. GART trifunctional protein has been purified from chicken liver (Daubner et al. 1985), and a cDNA encoding the chicken enzyme has been identified based on sequence similarities and its ability to complement E. coli cells whose homologous purine biosynthesis genes were mutated (Aimi et al. 1990). The subcellular location of the chicken enzyme is inferred from that of its better-characterized mammalian counterparts.
