Description

IPR016055 is a Alpha-D-phosphohexomutase, alpha/beta/alpha I/II/III.

<p>The alpha-D-phosphohexomutase superfamily is composed of four related enzymes, each of which catalyses a phosphoryl transfer on their sugar substrates: phosphoglucomutase (PGM), phosphoglucomutase/phosphomannomutase (PGM/PMM), phosphoglucosamine mutase (PNGM), and phosphoacetylglucosamine mutase (PAGM) [[cite:PUB00042561]]. PGM ([ec:5.4.2.2]) converts D-glucose 1-phosphate into D-glucose 6-phosphate, and participates in both the breakdown and synthesis of glucose [[cite:PUB00037156]]. PGM/PMM ([ec:5.4.2.2]; [ec:5.4.2.8]) are primarily bacterial enzymes that use either glucose or mannose as substrate, participating in the biosynthesis of a variety of carbohydrates such as lipopolysaccharides and alginate [[cite:PUB00040705], [cite:PUB00022429]]. Both PNGM ([ec:5.4.2.3]) and PAGM ([ec:5.4.2.10]) are involved in the biosynthesis of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine [[cite:PUB00042562], [cite:PUB00042563]].</p> <p>This superfamily represents domains I, II and III found in alpha-D-phosphohexomutase enzymes. All three domains share a 3-layer α/β/α topology.</p>
