Type: | Family | Name: | dTDP-4-dehydrorhamnose reductase |
Description: | dTDP-4-dehydrorhamnose reductase () catalyses the reduction of dTDP-6-deoxy-L-lyxo-4-hexulose to yield dTDP-L-rhamnose, which is the final step in the conversion of dTDP-D-glucose to dTDP-L-rhamnose []. dTDP-rhamnose is essential for growth of mycobacteria []. dTDP-L-rhamnose is the precursor of L-Rhamnose (L-Rha), a component of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) core and several O antigen polysaccharides of Pseudomonas []. | Short Name: | RmlD |
