EC 2.4.1.341 Details
EC number
2.4.1.341
Accepted name
α-1,2-colitosyltransferase
Reaction
GDP-β-L-colitose + β-D-galactopyranosyl-(1→3)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine = GDP + α-L-colitosyl-(1→2)-β-D-galactosyl-(1→3)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine
Other name(s)
wbgN (gene name)
Systematic name
GDP-β-L-colitose:β-D-galactopyranosyl-(1→3)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine L-colitosyltransferase (configuration-inverting)
Comment
The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Escherichia coli O55:H7, participates in the biosynthesis of an O-antigen. The reaction involves anomeric inversion, and does not require any metal ions. The enzyme is highly specific towards the acceptor, exclusively recognizing lacto-N-biose, but can accept GDP-L-fucose as the donor with almost the same activity as with GDP-β-L-colitose.
