== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/J9VQ51_CRYNH J9VQ51_CRYNH] Catalyzes the phosphorylation of ribose at O-5 in a reaction requiring ATP and magnesium. The resulting D-ribose-5-phosphate can then be used either for sythesis of nucleotides, histidine, and tryptophan, or as a component of the pentose phosphate pathway.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_03215]
