The enzyme, which has been purified from the bacteria Klebsiella oxytoca and Bacillus licheniformis, is part of a D-tagatose catabolic pathway. The substrate, which occurs in a pyranose form in solution, undergoes a change to the furanose conformation after binding to the enzyme, in order to permit phosphorylation at C-6.

Substrates: the bifunctional enzyme shows phospho-tagatokinase and phospho-fructokinase activities, the latter with D-fructose-1-phosphate as substrate. The catalytic efficiency of the enzyme for D-tagatose 1-phosphate is 40fold higher than that for fructose 1-phosphate, confirming that the enzyme is a D-tagatose 1-phosphate-specific kinase Products: -
