Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 2Å Ligands: NAD, SO4, UDP Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function GNE_PLESH Catalyzes the epimerization of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) to UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine (UDP-GalNAc). Has very low epimerase activity with UDP-Glc and UDP-Gal. Plays a role in the biosynthesis of 2-acetamino-2-deoxy-L-altruronic acid, a building block of the O-antigen in bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS).
