2.7.7.92 | evolution |
phylogenetic analysis of CMP-Kdn synthetases and of CMP-sugar synthetases across the algal groups, distribution of sialic acid and Kdo biosynthesis pathways in algae, overview |
-, 761484 |
2.7.7.92 | metabolism |
enzyme CMP-Kdn synthetase is involved in the Kdn biosynthesis pathway in the haptophyte Prymnesium parvum suggesting widespread sialic acid biosynthesis among microalgae. The CMP-Kdn synthetase is last enzyme in the pathway activating Kdn |

2.7.7.92 | physiological function |
enzyme is part of a biosynthetic pathway that forms and cytidylates 2-keto-3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-nononic acid, most likely for inclusion in the capsular polysaccharides encoded by Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron CP locus 7 |

2.7.7.92 | physiological function |
the enzyme catalyzes the de novo biosynthesis of the deaminated sialic acid, 3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-2-nonulosonic acid (Kdn), in the toxin-producing microalga Prymnesium parvum. This acidic sugarmay play a role in host-pathogen interactions involving microalgae |
