Gene Information

Name : araD (ECS88_0064)
Accession : YP_002389913.1
Strain : Escherichia coli S88
Genome accession: NC_011742
Putative virulence/resistance : Unknown
Product : L-ribulose-5-phosphate 4-epimerase
Function : -
COG functional category : G : Carbohydrate transport and metabolism
COG ID : COG0235
EC number : 5.1.3.4
Position : 67693 - 68388 bp
Length : 696 bp
Strand : -
Note : catalyzes the isomerization of L-ribulose 5-phosphate to D-xylulose 5-phosphate in the anaerobic catabolism of L-ascorbate; links the arabinose metabolic pathway to the pentose phosphate pathway and allows the bacteria to use arabinose as an energy source
