The name of this superfamily has been modified since the most recent official CATH+ release (v4_3_0). At the point of the last release, this superfamily was named:

"
Type I PLP-dependent aspartate aminotransferase-like (Major domain)
".

FunFam 89: Aminotransferase, DegT/DnrJ/EryC1/StrS family

There are 2 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
UDP-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-ribo-hexuluronate aminotransferase. [EC: 2.6.1.98]
UDP-2-acetamido-3-amino-2,3-dideoxy-alpha-D-glucuronate + 2-oxoglutarate = UDP-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-ribo-hex-3-uluronate + L-glutamate.
  • This enzyme participates in the biosynthetic pathway for UDP-alpha-D- ManNAc3NAcA (UDP-2,3-diacetamido-2,3-dideoxy-alpha-D-mannuronic acid), an important precursor of B-band lipopolysaccharide.
  • The enzymes from Pseudomonas aeruginosa serotype O5 and Thermus thermophilus form a complex with the previous enzyme in the pathway, EC 1.1.1.335.

DTDP-3-amino-3,4,6-trideoxy-alpha-D-glucose transaminase. [EC: 2.6.1.106]
dTDP-3-amino-3,4,6-trideoxy-alpha-D-glucose + 2-oxoglutarate = dTDP-3- dehydro-4,6-deoxy-alpha-D-glucose + L-glutamate.
  • The enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of dTDP-alpha-D- desosamine, a sugar found in several bacterial macrolide antibiotics including erythromycin, megalomicin A, mycinamicin II, and oleandomycin.
  • The reaction occurs in the reverse direction.
