ENZYME entry: EC 5.1.3.14

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/5.1.3.14
Accepted Name
UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase (non-hydrolyzing)
Alternative Name(s)
UDP-GlcNAc-2-epimerase
UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine 2-epimerase
uridine diphosphate-N-acetylglucosamine-2'-epimerase
uridine diphosphoacetylglucosamine 2'-epimerase
uridine diphospho-N-acetylglucosamine 2'-epimerase
Reaction catalysed
UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine = UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-mannosamine
Comment(s)
  • This bacterial enzyme catalyzes the reversible interconversion of UDP-GlcNAc and UDP-ManNAc.
  • The latter is used in a variety of bacterial polysaccharide biosyntheses. cf. EC 3.2.1.183.
