Description
Catalyzes the conversion of GDP-D-mannose to GDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-D-mannose (PubMed:16650000). Involved in susceptibility to pore-forming crystal toxins in conjunction with bre-2, bre-3, bre-4, and bre-5 (PubMed:10924467, PubMed:17135259, PubMed:17482642). Involved in susceptibility to the nematotoxic C.cinerea galectin Cgl2, likely by contributing to the synthesis of N-glycans to which Cgl2 binds (PubMed:20062796). Has a role in determining brood size (PubMed:10924467).
Family
Belongs to the NAD(P)-dependent epimerase/dehydratase family. GDP-mannose 4,6-dehydratase subfamily.
