General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution mammalian enzyme requires the presence of nucleotide activators and cofactors, while the bacterial enzyme are activated by nucleotide binding, but do not require them as cofactors Homo sapiens

metabolism the biosynthesis of N-acetyl-D-mannosamine can be regulated in amammals in two different ways. In the liver, UDP-GlcNAc is epimerized to UDP-ManNAc by the bifunctional UDP-GlcNAc 2-epimerase, while in the kidney (mostly), GlcNAc is directly epimerized to ManNac by GlyNAc 2-epimerase Homo sapiens
