Bacteria synthesize a wide array of unusual carbohydrate molecules, which they use in a variety of ways. The carbohydrate L-glycero-D-manno-heptose is an important component of lipopolysaccharide and is synthesized in a complex series of enzymatic steps. One step involves the epimerization at the C6'' position converting ADP-D-glycero-D-manno-heptose into ADP-L-glycero-D-manno-heptose ...
