Atomic-Level Investigation of Reactant Recognition Mechanism and Thermodynamic Property in Glucosamine 6-Phosphate Deaminase Catalysis

Glucosamine 6-phosphate deaminase (NagB) influences the direction of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) metabolism, facilitating the conversion of D-glucosamine 6-phosphate (GlcN6P) to D-fructose 6-phosphate (Fru6P) with the release of ammonia. Here, extensive molecular dynamics simulations combined with...
