In enzymology a 2-dehydro-3-deoxygluconokinase (EC 2.7.1.45) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionATP + 2-dehydro-3-deoxy-D-gluconate ADP + 6-phospho-2-dehydro-3-deoxy-D-gluconateThus the two substrates of this enzyme are ATP and 2-dehydro-3-deoxy-D-gluconate whereas its two products are ADP and 6-phospho-2-dehydro-3-deoxy-D-gluconate.This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing groups (phosphotransferases) with an alcohol group as acceptor.
