| 英文名 |
N-acetylgalactosamine kinase |
| Example Structure |
 |
| 别名 |
GALK2, GalNAc kinase, GalNAcK, GK2, More, N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc)-1-phosphate kinase |
| EC Number |
2.7.1.157 |
| CAS编号 |
|
| Comments |
The enzyme is highly specific for GalNAc as substrate, but has slight activity with?D-galactose [2]. Requires Mg2+, Mn2+?or Co2+?for activity, with Mg2+?resulting in by far the greatest stimulation of enzyme activity. |
| Cofactor |
Mg2+ |
| History |
|
| Reactions |
Atp + N-acetyl-alpha-D-galactosamine = adp + N-acetyl-alpha-D- galactosamine 1-phosphate. |
