Glutamine—fructose-6-phosphate transaminase (isomerizing)
In enzymology, a glutamine-fructose-6-phosphate transaminase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are L-glutamine and D-fructose 6-phosphate, whereas its two products are L-glutamate and D-glucosamine 6-phosphate.
This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically the transaminases, which transfer nitrogenous groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-glutamine:D-fructose-6-phosphate isomerase . This enzyme participates in glutamate metabolism and aminosugars metabolism.As of late 2007, 12 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes,,,,,,,,,,, and.
