Disease relevance of RENBP

N-Acyl-D-glucosamine 2-epimerase from porcine kidney, which was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli, was crystallized by the vapor-diffusion method, using polyethylene glycol and ammonium acetate as precipitants [1].

High impact information on RENBP

NeuAc is known to be biosynthesized either from UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine by an action of UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine 2-epimerase or from N-acetyl-D-glucosamine by N-acyl-D-glucosamine 2-epimerase (GlcNAc 2-epimerase) [2].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of RENBP

Molecular cloning and identification of N-acyl-D-glucosamine 2-epimerase from porcine kidney as a renin-binding protein [2].
Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction studies of N-acyl-D-glucosamine 2-epimerase from porcine kidney [1].
