EC 1.1.1.339

Accepted name: dTDP-6-deoxy-L-talose 4-dehydrogenase (NAD+)

Reaction: dTDP-6-deoxy-β-L-talose + NAD+ = dTDP-4-dehydro-β-L-rhamnose + NADH + H+

Glossary: dTDP-4-dehydro-β-L-rhamnose = dTDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-β-L-mannose
dTDP-6-deoxy-β-L-talose = dTDP-β-L-pneumose

Other name(s): tll (gene name)

Systematic name: dTDP-6-deoxy-β-L-talose:NAD+ 4-oxidoreductase

Comments: The enzyme has been characterized from the bacterium Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, in which it participates in the biosynthesis of the serotype c-specific polysaccharide antigen. Shows no activity with NADP+.
