L-cysteine:1D-myo-inositol 2-amino-2-deoxy-α-D-glucopyranoside ligase

Cat No.
EXWM-5716
Description
This enzyme is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of mycothiol, a small molecular weight thiol found in Mycobacteria spp. and other actinomycetes. Mycothiol plays a fundamental role in these organisms by helping to provide protection from the effects of reactive oxygen species and electrophiles, including many antibiotics. The enzyme may represent a novel target for new classes of antituberculars.
