Reaction: D-glycero-β-D-manno-heptose 1-phosphate + ATP = ADP-D-glycero-β-D-manno-heptose + diphosphate
Other name(s): D-β-D-heptose 7-phosphate kinase/D-β-D-heptose 1-phosphate adenylyltransferase; D-glycero-D-manno-heptose-1β-phosphate adenylyltransferase; hldE (gene name); rfaE (gene name)
Systematic name: ATP:D-glycero-β-D-manno-heptose 1-phosphate adenylyltransferase
Comments: The bifunctional protein hldE includes D-glycero-β-D-manno-heptose-7-phosphate kinase and D-glycero-β-D-manno-heptose 1-phosphate adenylyltransferase activity (cf. EC 2.7.1.167). The enzyme is involved in biosynthesis of ADP-L-glycero-β-D-manno-heptose, which is utilized for assembly of the lipopolysaccharide inner core in Gram-negative bacteria.
