Superfamily 3-Deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic-acid transferase, N-terminal domain
Functional Family 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic acid transferase

Enzyme Information

2.4.99.12
Lipid IV(A) 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic acid transferase.
based on mapping to UniProt O66663
Lipid IV(A) + CMP-beta-Kdo = alpha-Kdo-(2->6)-lipid IV(A) + CMP.
-!- The bifunctional enzyme from Escherichia coli transfers two 3-deoxy- D-manno-octulosonate residues to lipid IV(A) (cf. EC 2.4.99.13). -!- The monofunctional enzymes from Aquifex aeolicus and Haemophilus influenzae catalyze the transfer of a single 3-deoxy-D-manno- octulosonate residue from CMP-3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate to lipid IV(A). -!- The enzymes from Chlamydia transfer three or more 3-deoxy-D-manno- octulosonate residues and generate genus-specific epitopes.
