EC 2.7.1.176 Details
EC number
2.7.1.176
Accepted name
UDP-N-acetylglucosamine kinase
Reaction
ATP + UDP-N-acetyl-α-D-glucosamine = ADP + UDP-N-acetyl-α-D-glucosamine 3′-phosphate
Other name(s)
UNAG kinase, &zeta, toxin, toxin PezT, ATP:UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine 3′-phosphotransferase
Systematic name
ATP:UDP-N-acetyl-α-D-glucosamine 3′-phosphotransferase
Comment
Toxic component of a toxin-antitoxin (TA) module. The phosphorylation of UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine results in the inhibition of EC 2.5.1.7, UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 1-carboxyvinyltransferase, the first committed step in cell wall synthesis, which is then blocked. The activity of this enzyme is inhibited when the enzyme binds to the cognate ε antitoxin.
