ID 3.1.3.103 DE 3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-nonulopyranosonate 9-phosphatase. AN 2-keto-3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-non-2-ulopyranosonate-9-phosphate AN phosphatase. CA 3-deoxy-D-glycero-beta-D-galacto-non-2-ulopyranosonate 9-phosphate + CA H2O = 3-deoxy-D-glycero-beta-D-galacto-non-2-ulopyranosonate + phosphate. CC -!- The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Bacteroides CC thetaiotaomicron, is part of the biosynthesis pathway of the sialic CC acid 3-deoxy-D-glycero-beta-D-galacto-non-2-ulopyranosonate (Kdn). CC -!- Kdn is abundant in extracellular glycoconjugates of lower vertebrates CC such as fish and amphibians, but is also found in the capsular CC polysaccharides of bacteria that belong to the Bacteroides genus.
