EC 2.6.1.106 Details
EC number
2.6.1.106
Accepted name
dTDP-3-amino-3,4,6-trideoxy-α-D-glucose transaminase
Reaction
dTDP-3-amino-3,4,6-trideoxy-α-D-glucose + 2-oxoglutarate = dTDP-3-dehydro-4,6-deoxy-α-D-glucose + L-glutamate
Other name(s)
desV (gene name), megDII (gene name), eryCI (gene name)
Systematic name
dTDP-3-amino-3,4,6-trideoxy-α-D-glucose:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase
Comment
A pyridoxal-phosphate protein. The enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of dTDP-α-D-desosamine, a sugar found in several bacterial macrolide antibiotics including erythromycin, megalomicin A, mycinamicin II, and oleandomycin. The reaction occurs in the reverse direction.
