Protein name

RecName: Full=Anhydro-N-acetylmuramic acid kinase; EC=2.7.1.n1; AltName: Full=AnhMurNAc kinase;

Gene name

anmK

FUNCTION: Catalyzes the specific phosphorylation of 1,6-anhydro-N-acetylmuramic acid (anhMurNAc) with the simultaneous cleavage of the 1,6-anhydro ring, generating MurNAc-6-P. Is required for the utilization of anhMurNAc either imported from the medium or derived from its own cell wall murein, and thus plays a role in cell wall recycling (By similarity).

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: ATP + 1,6-anhydro-N-acetylmuramic acid + H(2)O = ADP + N-acetylmuramic acid 6-phosphate.

PATHWAY: Amino-sugar metabolism; anhydro-N-acetylmuramic acid degradation.

PATHWAY: Cell wall biogenesis; peptidoglycan recycling.

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the anhydro-N-acetylmuramic acid kinase family.
