  • A case in point is the MJ0107 protein, the apparent archaeal ortholog of DHPS, which failed to show dihydropteroate synthase activity [ 25].

  • Dihydropteroate synthase (DHPS) catalyzes the condensation of p -aminobenzoic acid with 7,8-dihydro-6-hydroxymethylpterin pyrophosphate to give 7,8-dihydropteroate, an intermediate in folate metabolism.

  • Taken together, these observations are sufficient to reject the proposed relationship between MJ0301 and dihydropteroate synthases.
