The text of the definition of term GO:0042351 'de novo'
GDP-L-fucose biosynthesis [Biological_process] may be
incorrect.
Short version of request: Please replace "EC 1.1.1.281"
with "EC 1.1.1.271" in the definition of this GO term.
Specfically, the last phrase of the definition
currently states:
requiring the functions of GDP-mannose 4,6-dehydratase
(EC:4.2.1.47) and GDP-4-dehydro-D-rhamnose reductase
(EC:1.1.1.187).
Citing EC 1.1.1.187 rather than EC 1.1.1.271 (which I
believe is the correct enzyme in the de novo pathway)
is inconsistent with both the literature
(c.f. Mattila 2000 PMID: 11030750) and the pathway for
GDP-L-Fucose given on the IUBMB website.
Note that in the IUBMB diagram, EC 1.1.1.281 and EC
4.2.1.47 both produce the same product
(GDP-4-dehydro-D-rhamnose) which is the substrate for
the next enzyme in the pathway, namely EC 1.1.1.271.
