ENZYME entry: EC 2.4.1.33
| Accepted Name |
|---|
| Mannuronan synthase.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
|---|
| Alginate synthase. |
| Mannuronosyl transferase. |
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| GDP-alpha-D-mannuronate + ((1->4)-beta-D-mannuronosyl)(n) <=> GDP + ((1->4)-beta-D-mannuronosyl)(n+1) |
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- The enzyme catalyzes the polymerization of beta-D-mannuronate
residues into a mannuronan polymer, an intermediate in the
biosynthesis of alginate.
- It is found in brown algae and in alginate-producing bacterial
species from the Pseudomonas and Azotobacter genera.
