General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism the enzyme is one of the six enzymes of the pentose phosphate pathway of Trypanosoma brucei and hydrolyzes D-6-phosphogluconolactone to 6-phosphogluconic acid Trypanosoma brucei
additional information analysis of effects of ligand binding on the internal dynamics of the enzyme by molecular dynamics simulations and nuclear magnetic resonance, alterations of conformational exchange, overview. Residues R77 and R200, located near the active site, interact directly with the phosphate group of 6-phospho-D-gluconate. Residue H165 is actively involved in catalysis Trypanosoma brucei
physiological function the enzyme plays a key role during infection, by providing the important reductive agent NADPH, and forms ribose 5-phosphate, a major nucleic acid precursor, as well as several metabolic intermediates, such as fructose 6-phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate Trypanosoma brucei
