UDP glucuronate decarboxylase and synthesis of capsular polysaccharide in Cryptococcus neoformans.

E S Jacobson, W R Payne.   

Abstract

UDP glucuronate decarboxylase activity was comparable in encapsulated and non-encapsulated strains of Cryptococcus neoformans, required NAD (K(a) = 0.2 mM), and was inhibited by NADH (K(i) = 0.1 mM) and UDP xylose.
