1.1.1.305 UDP-glucuronate + NAD+ Escherichia coli ArnA is a bi-functional enzyme, the oxidative decarboxylation of UDP-glucuronic acid is catalyzed by the 345-residue C-terminal domain of ArnA. The 304-residue N-terminal domain catalyzes the N-10-formyltetrahydrofolate-dependent formylation of the 4''-amine of UDP-L-4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose, generating the sugar nucleotide, uridine 5'-diphospho-beta-(4-deoxy-4-formamido-L-arabinose). The two domains of ArnA are expressed independently as active proteins in Escherichia coli. Both are required for maintenance of polymyxin resistance and 4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose modification of lipid A. only the formylated sugar nucleotide is converted in vitro to an undecaprenyl phosphate-linked form by the enzyme ArnC UDP-beta-L-threo-pentapyranos-4-ulose + CO2 + NADH + H+

General Information

2.4.2.53 physiological function enzyme takes part in the biosynthesis of UDP-4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose in polymyxin-resistant Escherichia coli. The N-formylation of UDP-4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose is an obligatory step in the biosynthesis of 4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose-modified lipid A in polymyxin-resistant mutants. Only the formylated sugar nucleotide is converted in vitro to an undecaprenyl phosphate-linked form by the enzyme ArnC. Because the L-Ara4N unit attached to lipid A is not derivatized with a formyl group, a deformylase must be acting later in the pathway Escherichia coli
