UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase; This cytosolic enzyme converts UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine to UDP-N-acetyl-D-mannosamine. In E. coli, this is the first step in the pathway of enterobacterial common antigen biosynthesis.Members of this orthology group have many gene symbols, often reflecting the overall activity of the pathway and/or operon that includes it. Symbols include epsC (exopolysaccharide C) in Burkholderia solanacerum, cap8P (type 8 capsule P) in Staphylococcus aureus, and nfrC in an older designation based on the effects of deletion on phage N4 adsorption. Epimerase activity was also demonstrated in a bifunctional rat enzyme, for which the N-terminal domain appears to be orthologous. The set of proteins found above the suggested cutoff includes E. coli WecB in one of two deeply branched clusters and the rat UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase domain in the other.

UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase and similar proteins; Bacterial members of the UDP-N-Acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) 2-Epimerase family (EC 5.1.3.14) are known to catalyze the reversible interconversion of UDP-GlcNAc and UDP-N-acetylmannosamine (UDP-ManNAc). The enzyme serves to produce an activated form of ManNAc residues (UDP-ManNAc) for use in the biosynthesis of a variety of cell surface polysaccharides; The mammalian enzyme is bifunctional, catalyzing both the inversion of stereochemistry at C-2 and the hydrolysis of the UDP-sugar linkage to generate free ManNAc. It also catalyzes the phosphorylation of ManNAc to generate ManNAc 6-phosphate, a precursor to salic acids. In mammals, sialic acids are found at the termini of oligosaccharides in a large variety of cell surface glycoconjugates and are key mediators of cell-cell recognition events. Mutations in human members of this family have been associated with Sialuria, a rare disease caused by the disorders of sialic acid metabolism. This family belongs to the GT-B structural superfamily of glycoslytransferases, which have characteristic N- and C-terminal domains each containing a typical Rossmann fold. The two domains have high structural homology despite minimal sequence homology. The large cleft that separates the two domains includes the catalytic center and permits a high degree of flexibility.

UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase; This family consists of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerases EC:5.1.3.14 this enzyme catalyzes the production of UDP-ManNAc from UDP-GlcNAc. Note that some of the enzymes is this family are bifunctional such as Swiss:O35826 and Swiss:Q9Z0P6 in this instance Pfam matches only the N-terminal half of the protein suggesting that the additional C-terminal part (when compared to mono-functional members of this family) is responsible for the UPD-N-acetylmannosamine kinase activity of these enzymes. This hypothesis is further supported by the assumption that the C-terminal part of Swiss:O35826 is the kinase domain.

(specific hits) are drawn in bright colors.
Others (non-specific hits) and
superfamily placeholders are drawn in pastel colors.
if a domain or superfamily has been annotated with functional sites (conserved features),
they are mapped to the query sequence and indicated through sets of triangles
with the same color and shade of the domain or superfamily that provides the annotation. Mouse over the colored bars or triangles to see descriptions of the domains and features.
