General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
5.3.1.25 physiological function fucose-processing enzymes fucose isomerase (FcsI), fuculose kinase (FcsK), and fuculose-1-phosphate aldolase (FcsA) act in a sequential manner to ultimately produce dihydroxyacetone phosphate. Fuculose-1-phosphate appears to act as an inducing molecule for activation of the fucose operon. The Streptococcus pneumoniae fucose-processing pathway has a nonmetabolic role in the interaction of this bacterium with its human host Streptococcus pneumoniae
