The purification and properties of N-acetylglucosamine 6-phosphate deacetylase from Escherichia coli. 1967

R J White, and C A Pasternak

1. N-Acetylglucosamine 6-phosphate deacetylase and 2-amino-2-deoxy-d-glucose 6-phosphate ketol-isomerase (deaminating) (EC 5.3.1.10, glucosamine 6-phosphate deaminase) of Escherichia coliK(12) have been separated by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. 2. N-Acetylglucosamine 6-phosphate deacetylase has optimum pH8.5 and K(m) 0.8mm. Glucosamine 6-phosphate is a product of the reaction. There appear to be no essential cofactors. Glucosamine 6-phosphate and fructose 6-phosphate inhibit deacetylation. 3. Glucosamine 6-phosphate deaminase has optimum pH7.0 and K(m) 9.0mm. It is stimulated by N-acetylglucosamine 6-phosphate. 4. We propose that the deacetylase be termed 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-d-glucose 6-phosphate amidohydrolase (EC 3.5.1.-), with acetylglucosamine 6-phosphate deacetylase as a trivial name.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007535	Isomerases	A class of enzymes that catalyze geometric or structural changes within a molecule to form a single product. The reactions do not involve a net change in the concentrations of compounds other than the substrate and the product.(from Dorland, 28th ed) EC 5.	Isomerase
D007700	Kinetics	The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008954	Models, Biological	Theoretical representations that simulate the behavior or activity of biological processes or diseases. For disease models in living animals, DISEASE MODELS, ANIMAL is available. Biological models include the use of mathematical equations, computers, and other electronic equipment.

D011232	Chemical Precipitation	The formation of a solid in a solution as a result of a chemical reaction or the aggregation of soluble substances into complexes large enough to fall out of solution.	Precipitation, Chemical
D002482	Cellulose	A polysaccharide with glucose units linked as in CELLOBIOSE. It is the chief constituent of plant fibers, cotton being the purest natural form of the substance. As a raw material, it forms the basis for many derivatives used in chromatography, ion exchange materials, explosives manufacturing, and pharmaceutical preparations.

D002852	Chromatography, Ion Exchange	Separation technique in which the stationary phase consists of ion exchange resins. The resins contain loosely held small ions that easily exchange places with other small ions of like charge present in solutions washed over the resins.

D004926	Escherichia coli	A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc.	Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
