Acyl-phosphate—hexose phosphotransferase
Template:Short description Template:Infobox enzyme In enzymology, an acyl-phosphate-hexose phosphotransferase (Template:EC number) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- acyl phosphate + D-hexose an acid + D-hexose phosphate
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are acyl phosphate and D-hexose, whereas its two products are acid and D-hexose phosphate.
This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing groups (phosphotransferases) with an alcohol group as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is acyl-phosphate:D-hexose phosphotransferase. This enzyme is also called hexose phosphate:hexose phosphotransferase.
