EC 2.7.1.163 Details
EC number
2.7.1.163
Accepted name
hygromycin B 4-O-kinase
Reaction
ATP + hygromycin B = ADP + 4-O-phosphohygromycin B
Other name(s)
hygromycin-B kinase (ambiguous)
Systematic name
ATP:hygromycin-B 4-O-phosphotransferase
Comment
Phosphorylates the antibiotic hygromycin B. Whereas the enzyme from Streptomyces hygroscopicus (EC 2.7.1.119; hygromycin-B 7′′-O-kinase) catalyses the formation of 7′′-O-phosphohygromycin B, this enzyme, found in Escherichia coli carrying a plasmid conferring resistance to hygromycin-B, forms 4-O-phosphohygromycin B.
