Biology, Mechanism, and Structure of Enzymes in the α-d-Phosphohexomutase Superfamily.

Advances in protein chemistry and structural biology - 1 Jan 2017

Stiers Kyle M, Muenks Andrew G, Beamer Lesa J

Abstract excerpt

Enzymes in the α-d-phosphohexomutases superfamily catalyze the reversible conversion of phosphosugars, such as glucose 1-phosphate and glucose 6-phosphate. These reactions are fundamental to primary metabolism across the kingdoms of life and are required for a myriad of cellular processes, ranging from exopolysaccharide production to protein glycosylation. The subject of extensive mechanistic characterization...
