fucI L-fucose isomerase [Escherichia coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655] - Gene

Summary

Official Symbol: fucI
Official Full Name: L-fucose isomerase
Primary source: ECOCYC:EG10349
Locus tag: b2802
See related: ASAP:ABE-0009189
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: PROVISIONAL
Organism: Escherichia coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655 (strain: K-12, substrain: MG1655)
Lineage: Bacteria; Pseudomonadota; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia
Also known as: ECK2797
Summary: FucI can function as both an L-fucose isomerase and a D-arabinose isomerase, the first enzymes of the L-fucose and D-arabinose degradation pathways, respectively. [More information is available at EcoCyc: EG10349].
