Enzyme Commission Number
EC 2.4.99.13
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
α-Kdo-(2→6)-lipid IVA + CMP-β-Kdo = α-Kdo-(2→4)-α-Kdo-(2→6)-lipid IVA + CMP
Systematic Name
CMP-3-deoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonate:(Kdo)-lipid IVA 3-deoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonate transferase
Function
The bifunctional enzyme from Escherichia coli transfers two 3-deoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonate residues to lipid IVA (cf. EC 2.4.99.12 [lipid IVA 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic acid transferase]). The enzymes from Chlamydia transfer three or more 3-deoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonate residues and generate genus-specific epitopes.
Other name
