ENZYME - 1.1.1.426 UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-quinovosamine dehydrogenase

Accepted Name
UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-quinovosamine dehydrogenase
Reaction catalysed
UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-quinovosamine + NADP(+) = UDP-2-acetamido-2,6-dideoxy-alpha-D-xylo-hex-4-ulose + NADPH + H(+) UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-quinovosamine + NAD(+) = UDP-2-acetamido-2,6-dideoxy-alpha-D-xylo-hex-4-ulose + NADH + H(+)
Comment(s)
The enzyme participates in the biosynthesis of N-acetyl-alpha-D- quinovosamine, a 6-deoxy sugar that is present in the O antigens of many Gram-negative bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa serotypes O6 and O10, Rhizobium etli, and Brucella abortus.
