Structural highlights
FunctionJ9VQ51_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] See Also |
