Nigerose phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.279, cphy1874 (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name 3-O-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-D-glucopyranose:phosphate beta-D-glucosyltransferase.[1] It catalyses the following chemical reaction:
The enzyme characterised from Clostridium phytofermentans is a type of glycoside hydrolase and is specific for nigerose (3-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-D-glucopyranose), which it converts to D-glucose and β-D-glucose 1-phosphate, by adding the phosphate group (Pi) to one of the glucose units.[2]
