Add article description

Pantoate kinase (EC 2.7.1.169, PoK, TK2141 protein) is an enzyme with systematic name ATP:(R)-pantoate 4-phosphotransferase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

ATP + (R)-pantoate ADP + (R)-4-phosphopantoate
Quick Facts Identifiers, EC no. ...

The conversion of (R)-pantoate to (R)-4'-phosphopantothenate is done during biosynthesis of 4'-phosphopantetheine,.
