EC Tree > 2 Transferases > 2.7 Transferring phosphorus-containing groups > 2.7.1 Phosphotransferases with an alcohol group as acceptor > 2.7.1.179 kanosamine kinase
Kanosamine kinase is the Amycolatopsis mediterranei amino-sugar kinase. It phosphorylates kanosamine on the 6-hydroxyl, releasing ADP and kanosamine 6-phosphate, activating this amino-sugar antibiotic precursor. The enzyme is specific for kanosamine. Expected in Amycolatopsis mediterranei.
