A new class EC 7, Translocases, has been added to the EC list. It will be part of ENZYME from release 2018_10. Read more about EC 7 here.

ENZYME entry: EC 1.1.1.333

Accepted Name
Decaprenylphospho-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosid-2-ulose 2-reductase.
Alternative Name(s)
Decaprenylphospho-beta-D-ribofuranose 2'-epimerase.
Reaction catalysed
Trans,octacis-decaprenylphospho-beta-D-arabinofuranose + NAD(+) <=> trans,octacis-decaprenylphospho-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosid-2-ulose + NADH
Comment(s)
  • The reaction is catalyzed in the reverse direction.
  • The enzyme, isolated from the bacterium Mycobacterium smegmatis, is involved, along with EC 1.1.98.3, in the epimerization of trans,octacis-decaprenylphospho-beta-D-ribofuranose to trans,octacis- decaprenylphospho-beta-D-arabinoofuranose, the arabinosyl donor for the biosynthesis of mycobacterial cell wall arabinan polymers.
