Rhizobium leguminosarum exopolysaccharide glucosyl ketal-pyruvate-transferase (, PssM) is an enzyme with systematic name *phosphoenolpyruvate:(D-GlcA-beta-(1-4)-2-O-Ac-D-GlcA-beta-(1-4)-D-Glc-beta-(1-4)-(3-O-CH3-CH2CH(OH)C(O)-D-Gal-beta-(1-4)-D-Glc-beta-(1-4)-D-Glc-beta-(1-4)-D-Glc-beta-(1-6))-2(or3)-O-Ac-D-Glc-alpha-(1-6))n 4,6-O-(1-carboxyethan-1,1-diyl)transferase *. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
: phosphoenolpyruvate + [D-GlcA-beta-(1-4)-2-O-Ac-D-GlcA-beta-(1-4)-D-Glc-beta-(1-4)-[3-O-CH3-CH2CH(OH)C(O)-D-Gal-beta-(1-4)-D-Glc-beta-(1-4)-D-Glc-beta-(1-4)-D-Glc-beta-(1-6)]-2(or3)-O-Ac-D-Glc-alpha-(1-6)]n \rightleftharpoons [D-GlcA-beta-(1-4)-2-O-Ac-D-GlcA-beta-(1-4)-D-Glc-beta-(1-4)-[3-O-CH3-CH2CH(OH)C(O)-D-Gal-beta-(1-3)-4,6-CH3(COO-)C-D-Glc-beta-(1-4)-D-Glc-beta-(1-4)-D-Glc-beta-(1-6)]-2(or3)-O-Ac-D-Glc-alpha-(1-6)]n + phosphate
The enzyme is responsible for pyruvylation of subterminal glucose in the acidic octasaccharide repeating unit of the exopolysaccharide of Rhizobium leguminosarum.
