Description
Requires Mg2+. The enzyme is absolutely specific for GDPmannose and 3-phosphoglycerate, and transfers the mannosyl group with retention of configuration. In the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus horikoshii, the mannosyl-3-phosphoglycerate formed is subsequently dephosphorylated by a specific phosphatase, EC 3.1.3.70 (mannosyl-3-phosphoglycerate phosphatase), producing mannosylglycerate.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
MPG synthase; GDP-mannose:3-phosphoglycerate 3-α-D-mannosyltransferase
Reaction
GDP-mannose + 3-phospho-D-glycerate = GDP + 2-(α-D-mannosyl)-3-phosphoglycerate
