| Other name(s): |
WbpD; WlbB |
| Systematic name: |
acetyl-CoA:UDP-2-acetamido-3-amino-2,3-dideoxy-α-D-glucuronate N-acetyltransferase |
| Comments: |
This enzyme participates in the biosynthetic pathway for UDP-α-D-ManNAc3NAcA (UDP-2,3-diacetamido-2,3-dideoxy-α-D-mannuronic acid), an important precursor of B-band lipopolysaccharide. |
