Phosphomannomutase 1 (PMM1) (AA 1-262) protein (His tag)
Description
Phosphomannomutase 1 (PMM1) is an enzyme involved in the synthesis of the GDP-mannose and dolichol-phosphate-mannose required for a number of critical mannosyl transfer reactions. PMM1 catalyzes the conversion between D-mannose 6-phosphate and D-mannose 1-phosphate which is a substrate for GDP-mannose synthesis. GDP-mannose is used for the synthesis of dolichol-phosphate-mannose, which is crucial for N-linked glycosylation and accordingly the secretion of several glycoproteins as well as for the synthesis of glycosyl-phosphatidyl-inositol (GPI) anchored proteins. Additionally, PMM1 may be responsible for the degradation of glucose-1,6-bisphosphate in ischemic brain Synonyms: Phosphomannomutase 1, PMM 1, PMMH-22, PMM1, PMMH22, Sec53
