2.7.7.64 | UTP + a monosaccharide 1-phosphate = diphosphate + UDP-monosaccharide |
UDP-sugar-producing pyrophosphorylases catalyze reversible reactions, require magnesium for catalysis, and act through an ordered sequential Bi-Bi reaction mechanism. In the forward reaction, UTP binds before the sugar 1-phosphate, and after catalysis, inorganic diphosphate is released before the UDP-sugar |
