Xanthan ketal pyruvate transferase

Field	Value
Name	Xanthan ketal pyruvate transferase
EC_number	2.5.1.95

Xanthan ketal pyruvate transferase (, KPT) is an enzyme with systematic name phosphoenolpyruvate:D-Man-beta-(1-4)-GlcA-beta-(1-2)-D-Man-alpha-(1-3)-D-Glc-beta-(1-4)-D-Glc-alpha-1-diphospho-ditrans,octacis-undecaprenol 4,6-O-(1-carboxyethan-1,1-diyl)transferase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

: phosphoenolpyruvate + D-Man-beta-(1-4)-D-GlcA-beta-(1-2)-D-Man-alpha-(1-3)-D-Glc-beta-(1-4)-D-Glc-alpha-1-diphospho-ditrans,octacis-undecaprenol \rightleftharpoons + phosphate

This enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of the polysaccharide xanthan.
