Abstract
⺠Locus tags Bf3481 and Cthe_0922 encode authentic forms of diaminopimelate dehydrogenase. ⺠Bf3481 defines a previously uncharacterized diaminopimelate dehydrogenase (Ddh). ⺠Ddh frequently occurs in the same genome as another diaminopimelate pathway. ⺠Ddh has a restricted phylogenomic distribution. ⺠Hypothesis: Ddh evolved recently as an ancillary diaminopimelate biosynthesis mechanism.
