Galacturonokinase
Definition:
EC Tree > 2 Transferases > 2.7 Transferring phosphorus-containing groups > 2.7.1 Phosphotransferases with an alcohol group as acceptor > 2.7.1.44 galacturonokinase
Galacturonokinase is the pectin-plant uronate-activation kinase. It phosphorylates D-galacturonate on the 1-hydroxyl, releasing ADP and 1-phospho-alpha-D-galacturonate, feeding pectin/galacturonate breakdown. It occurs in viruses and cellular organisms.
