CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF GDP-4-KETO-6-DEOXY-D-MANNOSE EPIMERASE/REDUCTASE FROM ESCHERICHIA COLI A KEY ENZYME IN THE BIOSYNTHESIS OF GDP-L-FUCOSECRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF GDP-4-KETO-6-DEOXY-D-MANNOSE EPIMERASE/REDUCTASE FROM ESCHERICHIA COLI A KEY ENZYME IN THE BIOSYNTHESIS OF GDP-L-FUCOSE
Structural highlights
1bws is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Escherichia coli. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
FCL_ECOLI Catalyzes the two-step NADP-dependent conversion of GDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-D-mannose to GDP-fucose, involving an epimerase and a reductase reaction.[1][2][3]
