Primary Identifier | IPR013131 | Type | Domain |
Short Name | Mannitol_DH_N |
description | Mannitol-1-phosphate 5-dehydrogenase catalyses the NAD-dependent reduction of mannitol-1-phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate []as part of the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system (PTS). The PTS facilitates the vectorial translocation of metabolisable carbohydrates to formthe corresponding sugar phosphates, which are then converted to glycolytic intermediates []. Mannitol 2-dehydrogenase catalyses the NAD-dependent reduction of mannitol tofructose [].Several dehydrogenases have been shown []to be evolutionary related, including mannitol-1-phosphate 5-dehydrogenase () (gene mtlD), mannitol 2-dehydrogenase () (gene mtlK); mannonate oxidoreductase () (fructuronate reductase) (gene uxuB); Escherichia coli hypothetical proteins ydfI and yeiQ; and yeast hypothetical protein YEL070w. This domain has a Rossmann-type fold. |
