During our biochemical characterization of select bacterial phosphatases belonging to the haloacid dehalogenase superfamily of hydrolases, we discovered a strong bias of Salmonella YidA for glucose-1-phosphate (Glc-1-P) over galactose-1-phosphate (Gal-1-P). We sought to exploit this ability of YidA to discriminate these two sugar-phosphate epimers in a simple coupled assay that could be a substitute for current cumbersome alternatives. To this end, we focused on Gal-1-P uridylyltransferase (GalT) that is defective in individuals with classical galactosemia, an inborn disorder.
