ENZYME entry: EC 5.1.3.37
Accepted Name |
Mannuronan 5-epimerase.
|
Alternative Name(s) |
Alginate epimerase. |
C(5)-mannuronan epimerase. |
Mannuronan C-5-epimerase. |
Reaction catalysed |
(Mannuronan)-beta-D-mannuronate <=> (alginate)-alpha-L-guluronate |
Comment(s) |
- The enzyme epimerizes the C-5 bond in some beta-D-mannuronate
residues in mannuronan, converting them to alpha-L-guluronate
residues, and thus modifying the mannuronan into alginate.
- It is found in brown algae and alginate-producing bacterial species
from the Pseudomonas and Azotobacter genera.
