- In enzymology, a
ribokinase (EC 2.7.1.15) is an
enzyme that
catalyzes the
chemical reaction ATP + d-ribose ⇌ ADP + d-ribose 5-phosphate Thus, the two substrates...
- kinases.
Other members of this
family (also
known as the
Ribokinase family)
include ribokinase (RK),
adenosine kinase (AK),
inosine kinase, and 1-phosphofructokinase...
- d-ribose
after it is
converted to d-ribose 5-phosphate by the
enzyme ribokinase. NAD, FAD, and NADP act as
electron acceptors in
biochemical redox reactions...
- the 1960s. This
enzyme belongs to the
phosphofructokinase B (PfkB) or
Ribokinase family of
sugar kinases,
specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing...
- kinases.
Other members of this
family (also
known as the RK family)
include ribokinase (RK), inosine-guanosine kinase, fructokinase, and 1-phosphofructokinase...

-
proteins both use
copper binding sites to
transport oxygen. The hexokinase,
ribokinase, and
galactokinase families of
sugar kinases have
similar enzymatic functions...

similar enzymatic function on
different protein folds: the hexokinase,
ribokinase, and
galactokinase families of
sugar kinases".

domain with high
structural homology to the
members of a
ribokinase-like
superfamily or

diverse functions...
-
enzyme was then "copied",
adding random mutations to each copy
using ribokinase engineering. The
mutant genes were
inserted into
Escherichia coli bacteria...
