IPR018321 | Conserved_site | Glucosamine-6-phosphate isomerase, conserved site |
Type: | Domain | Name: | Glucosamine/galactosamine-6-phosphate isomerase |
Description: | This domain is characteristic of the enzymes 6-phosphogluconolactonase (), Glucosamine-6-phosphate isomerase (), and Galactosamine-6-phosphate isomerase. 6-Phosphogluconolactonase is the enzyme responsible for the hydrolysis of 6-phosphogluconolactone to 6-phosphogluconate, the second step in the pentose phosphate pathway. Glucosamine-6-phosphate isomerase (or Glucosamine 6-phosphate deaminase) is the enzyme responsible for the conversion of D-glucosamine 6-phosphate into D-fructose 6-phosphate []. It is the last specific step in the pathway for N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAC) utilization in bacteria such as Escherichia coli(gene nagB) or in fungi such as Candida albicans(gene NAG1). | Short Name: | Glc/Gal-6P_isomerase |
