Structure and Mechanism of Human UDP-xylose Synthase: EVIDENCE FOR A PROMOTING ROLE OF SUGAR RING DISTORTION IN A THREE-STEP CATALYTIC CONVERSION OF UDP-GLUCURONIC ACID
UDP-xylose synthase (UXS) catalyzes decarboxylation of UDP-d-glucuronic acid to UDP-xylose. In mammals, UDP-xylose serves to initiate glycosaminoglycan synthesis on the protein core of extracellular matrix proteoglycans. Lack of UXS activity leads to a defective extracellular matrix, resulting in st...
