The non-hydrolysing bacterial UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase catalyses the conversion of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine to UDP-N-acetylmannosamine, an intermediate in the biosynthesis of several cell surface polysaccarides. The enzyme is allosterically regulated by its substrate, UDP-N-acetylglucosamine, a reaction feature specific to the bacterial form of the enzyme. The structure of the enzyme shows homology with the glycosyl transferases.
