2-Deoxystreptamine glucosyltransferase

2-deoxystreptamine glucosyltransferase (, kanF (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name UDP-alpha-D-glucose:2-deoxystreptamine 6-alpha-D-glucosyltransferase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * UDP-alpha-D-glucose + 2-deoxystreptamine $$\rightleftharpoons$$ UDP + 2'-deamino-2'-hydroxyparomamine

This enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of kanamycin B and kanamycin C.
