| EC_number | 1.1.1.341 |
CDP-abequose synthase (, rfbJ (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name CDP-alpha-D-abequose:NADP+ 4-oxidoreductase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
: CDP-alpha-D-abequose + NADP+ \rightleftharpoons CDP-4-dehydro-3,6-dideoxy-alpha-D-glucose + NADPH + H+
This enzyme is from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis and Salmonella enterica.
