5.4.99.9 additional information enzyme TcUGM active site structure, overview Trypanosoma cruzi
5.4.99.9 physiological function the enzyme UDP-galactopyranose mutase (UGM) catalyses the conversion of galactopyranose into galactofuranose. It is critical for the survival and proliferation of several pathogenic agents, both prokaryotic and eukaryotic Trypanosoma cruzi
