UDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine transaminase

FieldValue
NameUDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine transaminase
EC_number2.6.1.91

UDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine transaminase (, pglE (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name UDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

: UDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine + 2-oxoglutarate \rightleftharpoons UDP-2-acetamido-2,6-dideoxy-alpha-D-xylo-hex-4-ulose + L-glutamate

This enzyme is a pyridoxal-phosphate protein.
