Description | This entry represents a family of aminotransferases involved in the biosynthesis of pseudaminic acid [ , , ]. They convert UDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-N-acetylglucosamine into UDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-N-acetylgalactose. Pseudaminic acid has a role in surface polysaccharide in Pseudomonas as well as in the modification of flagellin in Campylobacter and Helicobacter species []. | Name | UDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-N-acetyl-beta-L-altrosamine transaminase |
Short Name | PseC | Type | Family |
