| In [[enzymology]], a '''1,4-beta-D-xylan synthase''' ({{EC number|2.4.2.24}}) is an [[enzyme]] that [[catalysis|catalyzes]] the [[chemical reaction]]
| |
| | |
| :UDP-D-xylose + (1,4-beta-D-xylan)n <math>\rightleftharpoons</math> UDP + (1,4-beta-D-xylan)n<sup>+</sup>1
| |
| | |
| Thus, the two [[substrate (biochemistry)|substrates]] of this enzyme are [[UDP-D-xylose]] and [[(1,4-beta-D-xylan)n]], whereas its two [[product (chemistry)|products]] are [[uridine diphosphate|UDP]] and [[(1,4-beta-D-xylan)n+1]].
| |
| | |
| This enzyme belongs to the family of [[glycosyltransferase]]s, specifically the pentosyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is '''UDP-D-xylose:1,4-beta-D-xylan 4-beta-D-xylosyltransferase'''. Other names in common use include '''uridine diphosphoxylose-1,4-beta-xylan xylosyltransferase''', '''1,4-beta-xylan synthase''', '''xylan synthase''', and '''xylan synthetase'''. This enzyme participates in [[starch and sucrose metabolism]] and [[nucleotide sugars metabolism]].
