General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution phylogenetic analysis of CMP-Kdn synthetases and of CMP-sugar synthetases across the algal groups, distribution of sialic acid and Kdo biosynthesis pathways in algae, overview Prymnesium parvum
metabolism enzyme CMP-Kdn synthetase is involved in the Kdn biosynthesis pathway in the haptophyte Prymnesium parvum suggesting widespread sialic acid biosynthesis among microalgae. The CMP-Kdn synthetase is last enzyme in the pathway activating Kdn Prymnesium parvum
physiological function the enzyme catalyzes the de novo biosynthesis of the deaminated sialic acid, 3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-2-nonulosonic acid (Kdn), in the toxin-producing microalga Prymnesium parvum. This acidic sugarmay play a role in host-pathogen interactions involving microalgae Prymnesium parvum
