UDP-N-acetyl-D-mannosamine dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.336, UDP-ManNAc 6-dehydrogenase, wecC (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-mannosamine:NAD+ 6-oxidoreductase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-mannosamine + 2 NAD+ + H2O [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-mannosaminuronate + 2 NADH + 2 H+
This enzyme participates in acetamido sugar biosynthesis in bacteria and archaea.
