2.7.1.229

Accepted name:

deoxyribokinase

Reaction:

ATP + 2-deoxy-D-ribose = ADP + 2-deoxy-D-ribose 5-phosphate

Other name(s):

deoK (gene name)

Systematic name:

ATP:2-deoxy-D-ribose 5-phosphotransferase

Comments:

The enzyme, characterized from bacteria, is much more active with 2-deoxy-D-ribose than with D-ribose. cf. EC 2.7.1.15, ribokinase.
