Gene Information

Name : araD (CDR20291_2176)
Accession : YP_003218662.1
Strain : Clostridium difficile R20291
Genome accession: NC_013316
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 : -
Position : 2559426 - 2560112 bp
Length : 687 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
