Function

DPRE1_MYCTU Involved in the epimerization of decaprenylphosphoryl ribose (DPR) to decaprenylphosphoryl arabinose (DPA) a precursor for arabinan synthesis in mycobacterial cell wall biosynthesis. Probably catalyzes the oxidation at C-2 of decaprenylphosphoryl ribose (DPR) to yield decaprenylphosphoryl 2-keto-ribose (DPX).^[1]
