Glossary: GDP-4-dehydro-α-D-rhamnose = GDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-α-D-mannose
Other name(s): GDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-D-mannose-3,5-epimerase-4-reductase; GDP-L-fucose:NADP+ 4-oxidoreductase (3,5-epimerizing)
Systematic name: GDP-β-L-fucose:NADP+ 4-oxidoreductase (3,5-epimerizing)
Comments: Both human and Escherichia coli enzymes can use NADH in place of NADPH to a slight extent.
