EC 2.7.1.171

Accepted name: protein-fructosamine 3-kinase

Reaction: ATP + [protein]-N6-D-fructosyl-L-lysine = ADP + [protein]-N6-(3-O-phospho-D-fructosyl)-L-lysine

Other name(s): FN3K; fructosamine 3-kinase

Systematic name: ATP:[protein]-N6-D-fructosyl-L-lysine 3-phosphotransferase

Comments: Nonenzymatic glycation is an important factor in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications. Key early intermediates in this process are fructosamines, such as [protein]-N6-D-fructosyl-L-lysine. Fructosamine-3-kinase is part of an ATP-dependent system for removing carbohydrates from nonenzymatically glycated proteins. The phosphorylation destablilizes the [protein]-N6-D-fructosyl-L-lysine adduct and leads to its spontaneous decomposition. cf. EC 2.7.1.172, protein-ribulosamine 3-kinase.
