UDP 2 acetamido 2 deoxy ribo hexuluronate aminotransferase

UDP-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-ribo-hexuluronate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.98, WbpE, WlbC) is an enzyme with systematic name UDP-2-acetamido-3-amino-2,3-dideoxy-alpha-D-glucuronate:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

UDP-2-acetamido-3-amino-2,3-dideoxy-alpha-D-glucuronate + 2-oxoglutarate ⇌ UDP-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-ribo-hex-3-uluronate + L-glutamate

This enzyme is a pyridoxal 5'-phosphate protein.
