Covalent catalyst in the UDP-glucose dehydrogenase
UDP-glucose dehydrogenase from Streptococcus pyogenes (EC 1.1.1.22) is a NAD ⁺- dependent enzyme that catalyzes the 4-electron oxidation of UDP-glucose to UDPglucuronic acid without the release of an aldehyde intermediate. This enzyme is interesting because its single active site carries out two...
