Protein description
Xylulokinase


SGD Description
Xylulokinase; converts D-xylulose and ATP to xylulose 5-phosphate and ADP; rate limiting step in fermentation of xylulose; required for xylose fermentation by recombinant S. cerevisiae strains


PomBase Description
xylulose kinase Xks1 (predicted)


AspGD Description
Putative xylulokinase; expression induced by growth on xylose; carbon catabolite repressed; XlnR regulated
