Catalyzed reaction |
UDP-N-acetylbacillosamine + 2-oxoglutarate = UDP-2-acetamido-2,6-dideoxy-alpha-D-xylo-hex-4-ulose + L-glutamate |
Cofactor |
Pyridoxal-phosphate. |
Comments |
The enzyme is involved in biosynthesis of UDP- N,N'-diacetylbacillosamine, an intermediate in protein glycosylation pathways in several bacterial species, including N-linked glycosylation of certain L-asparagine residues in Campylobacter species and O-linked glycosylation of certain L-serine residues in Neisseria species.
Formerly EC 2.6.1.91. |
|
In C. jejuni PglE is involved in the general glycosylation pathway (Pgl) responsible for the N-linked modification of proteins with a heptasaccharide containing 2,4-diacetamido-2,4,6-trideoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranose, a derivative of bacillosamine. Specifically, the product of the PglE aminotransferase is UDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-alpha-D-GlcNAc (UDP-2-acetamido-4-amino-2,4,6-trideoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranose) - a precursor used in the production of the Pgl glycan component |
