Chemical Mechanism of UDP-Galactopyranose Mutase from Trypanosoma cruzi: A Potential Drug Target against Chagas' Disease

UDP-galactopyranose mutase (UGM) is a flavoenzyme that catalyzes the conversion of UDP-galactopyranose to UDP-galactofuranose, the precursor of galactofuranose (Galf). Galf is found in several pathogenic organisms, including the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas' disease...
