Type: | Family | Name: | Dihydroxyacetone kinase |
Description: | This family consists of examples of the single chain form of dihydroxyacetone kinase (also called glycerone kinase) that uses ATP () as the phosphate donor, rather than a phosphoprotein as in Escherichia coli. This form has separable domains homologous to the K and L subunits of the E. coli enzyme, and is found in yeasts and other eukaryotes and in some bacteria, including Citrobacter freundii[, ].The member from tomato has been shown to phosphorylate dihydroxyacetone, 3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone, and some other aldoses and ketoses []. Members from mammals have been shown to catalyse both the phosphorylation of dihydroxyacetone and the splitting of ribonucleoside diphosphate-X compounds among which FAD is the best substrate []. In yeast there are two isozymes of dihydroxyacetone kinase (Dak1 and Dak2) []. | Short Name: | DhaK_ATP |
