In enzymology, a CDP-paratose 2-epimerase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction :CDP-3,6-dideoxy-D-glucose CDP-3,6-dideoxy-D-mannose Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, CDP-3,6-dideoxy-D-glucose, and one product, CDP-3,6-dideoxy-D-mannose. This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases, specifically those racemases and epimerases acting on carbohydrates and derivatives. The systematic name of this enzyme class is CDP-3,6-dideoxy-D-glucose 2-epimerase. Other names in common use include CDP-paratose epimerase, cytidine diphosphoabequose epimerase, cytidine diphosphodideoxyglucose epimerase, cytidine diphosphoparatose epimerase, and cytidine diphosphate paratose-2-epimerase. It is also incorrectly known as ''CDP-abequose epimerase'', and ''CDP-D-abequose 2-epimerase''. This enzyme participates in starch and sucrose metabolism. It employs one cofactor, NAD+. ==References== * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「CDP-paratose 2-epimerase」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
