EC 3.5.1.129

Accepted name: N5-(cytidine 5'-diphosphoramidyl)-L-glutamine hydrolase

Reaction: N5-(cytidine 5'-diphosphoramidyl)-L-glutamine + H2O = cytidine 5'-diphosphoramidate + L-glutamate

Other name(s): N5-(cytidine 5'-diphosphoramidyl)-L-glutamine deacylase

Systematic name: N5-(cytidine 5'-diphosphoramidyl)-L-glutamine amidohydrolase

Comments: The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Campylobacter jejuni, is involved in formation of a unique O-methyl phosphoramidate modification on specific sugar residues within the bacterium's capsular polysaccharides.
