Protein name

RecName: Full=Putative N-acetylmannosamine-6-phosphate 2-epimerase; EC=5.1.3.9; AltName: Full=ManNAc-6-P epimerase;

Gene name

nanE

FUNCTION: Converts N-acetylmannosamine-6-phosphate (ManNAc-6-P) to N-acetylglucosamine-6-phosphate (GlcNAc-6-P) (Potential).

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: N-acyl-D-glucosamine 6-phosphate = N-acyl-D-mannosamine 6-phosphate.

PATHWAY: Amino-sugar metabolism; N-acetylneuraminate degradation; D-fructose 6-phosphate from N-acetylneuraminate: step 3/5.

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the nanE family.

Carbohydrate metabolism, Isomerase.

GO:0016857; Molecular function: racemase and epimerase activity, acting on carbohydrates and derivatives.
GO:0005975; Biological process: carbohydrate metabolic process.
GO:0006051; Biological process: N-acetylmannosamine metabolic process.
