Phosphoribokinase
Definition:
EC Tree > 2 Transferases > 2.7 Transferring phosphorus-containing groups > 2.7.1 Phosphotransferases with an alcohol group as acceptor > 2.7.1.18 phosphoribokinase
Phosphoribokinase is a ribose-phosphate sugar kinase. It phosphorylates D-ribose 5-phosphate at the 1-hydroxyl, releasing ADP and alpha-D-ribose 1,5-bisphosphate, a ribose-bisphosphate intermediate. Expected in Eukaryota and Bacteria.
