2.7.7.70 D-glycero-beta-D-manno-heptose 1-phosphate + ATP - 2.7.7.70 D-glycero-beta-D-manno-heptose 1-phosphate + ATP synthesis of ADP-D-beta-D-heptose in Escherichia coli requires three proteins, GmhA (sedoheptulose 7-phosphate isomerase), HldE (bifunctional D-beta-D-heptose 7-phosphate kinase/D-beta-D-heptose 1-phosphate adenylyltransferase), and GmhB (D,D-heptose 1,7-bisphosphate phosphatase) 2.7.7.70 additional information rfaE encodes a bifunctional protein. It is proposed that domain I is involved in the synthesis of D-glycero-D-manno-heptose 1-phosphate, whereas domain II catalyzes the ADP transfer to form ADP-D-glycero-D-manno-heptose
