EC 3.5.99.6

Names

Accepted name:
glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase
Other names:
aminodeoxyglucosephosphate isomerase
glucosamine phosphate deaminase
glucosaminephosphate isomerase
phosphoglucosamine isomerase
phosphoglucosaminisomerase
glucosamine-6-phosphate isomerase
GlcN6P deaminase
Systematic name:
2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucose-6-phosphate aminohydrolase (ketol isomerizing)

Reaction

Comments:

Formerly EC 5.3.1.10. Isomerization of the aldose-ketose type converts the -CH(-NH2)-CH=O group of glucosamine 6-phosphate into -C(=NH)-CH2-OH, forming 2-deoxy-2-imino-D-arabino-hexitol, which then hydrolyses to yield fructose 6-phosphate and ammonia. N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine 6-phosphate, which is not broken down, activates the enzyme.
