| UniProt functional annotation for O54288 | |||
| UniProt code: O54288. |
| Organism: | Saccharolobus solfataricus (Sulfolobus solfataricus). | |
| Taxonomy: | Archaea; Crenarchaeota; Thermoprotei; Sulfolobales; Sulfolobaceae; Saccharolobus. | |
| Function: | Involved in the degradation of glucose and galactose via the Entner-Doudoroff pathway. Catalyzes the reversible cleavage of 2-keto- 3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate (KDPG) and 2-keto-3-deoxygluconate (KDG) forming pyruvate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate or glyceraldehyde, respectively. It is also able to catalyze the reversible cleavage of 2- keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogalactonate (KDPGal) and 2-keto-3- deoxygalactonate (KDGal). It is equally active with both D- and L- glyceraldehyde. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10527934, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12824170, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16330030}. | |
