Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
D100N mutant is found to be significantly catalytically compromised (kcat reduced by 1000) Neisseria meningitidis
D131N mutant is found to be significantly catalytically compromised (kcat reduced by 1000), 2-acetamidoglucal is released from the active site during catalysis, providing direct evidence that the enzyme is capable of catalyzing the anti elimination of UDP from UDP-GlcNAc Neisseria meningitidis
E122Q mutant is found to be significantly catalytically compromised (kcat reduced by 1000), 2-acetamidoglucal is released from the active site during catalysis, providing direct evidence that the enzyme is capable of catalyzing the anti elimination of UDP from UDP-GlcNAc Neisseria meningitidis

Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine + H2O = N-acetyl-D-mannosamine + UDP the mechanism is proposed to involve an anti elimination of UDP to form 2-acetamidoglucal as an intermediate, followed by the syn addition of water Neisseria meningitidis
