EC 2.7.7.92 Details
EC number
2.7.7.92
Accepted name
3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-nonulopyranosonate cytidylyltransferase
Reaction
CTP + 3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-non-2-ulopyranosonate = diphosphate + CMP-3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-non-2-ulopyranosonate
Systematic name
CTP:3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-non-2-ulopyranosonate cytidylyltransferase
Comment
The enzyme is part of the biosynthesis pathway of the sialic acid 3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-non-2-ulopyranosonate (Kdn). Kdn is abundant in extracellular glycoconjugates of lower vertebrates such as fish and amphibians, but is also found in the capsular polysaccharides of bacteria that belong to the Bacteroides genus.
