| Short Name | GlcN_kinase |
| description | This entry represents glucosamine kinase mostly from Actinobacteria, including GlcN kinase from S. jiangxiensis (known as SjGlcNK). SjGlcNK contains a fold similar to mycobacterial maltokinases. However, SjGlcNK was unable to phosphorylate maltose or aminoglycosides in vitro. Instead, it catalyses the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of D-glucosamine (GlcN) to D-glucosamine 6-phosphate []. |
