Functional Family GAL10p UDP-glucose-4-epimerase

Enzyme Information

5.1.3.2
UDP-glucose 4-epimerase.
based on mapping to UniProt P04397
UDP-alpha-D-glucose = UDP-alpha-D-galactose.
-!- Also acts on UDP-2-deoxyglucose.
5.1.3.3
Aldose 1-epimerase.
based on mapping to UniProt P04397
Alpha-D-glucose = beta-D-glucose.
-!- Also acts on L-arabinose, D-xylose, D-galactose, maltose and lactose. -!- This enzyme catalyzes the first step in galactose metabolism by converting beta-D-galactose into alpha-D-galactose, which is the substrate for EC 2.7.1.6.
