dihydrostreptomycin-6-phosphate 3'alpha-kinase (EC 2.7.1.88) is an
enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction ATP + dihydrostreptomycin
6-phosphate \rightleftharpoons ADP + dihydrostreptomycin
3'alpha,6-bisphosphate. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are ATP
and dihydrostreptomycin 6-phosphate, whereas its two products are ADP
and dihydrostreptomycin 3'alpha,6-bisphosphate. This enzyme belongs to
the family of transferases, specifically those transferring
phosphorus-containing groups (phosphotransferases) with an alcohol group
as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is
ATP:dihydrostreptomycin-6-phosphate 3'alpha-phosphotransferase. Other
names in common use include dihydrostreptomycin 6-phosphate kinase
(phosphorylating), and ATP:dihydrostreptomycin-6-P
3'alpha-phosphotransferase.
