Capillary electropherogram of WbpB, WbpE, and WbpD reactions.
A, WbpB enzyme alone produced no product. B, WbpE enzyme
alone produced no product. C, WbpB and WbpE incubated together
yielded a novel peak that migrated just ahead of UDP-d-GlcNAcA, and
this was identified as UDP-d-GlcNAc3NA. D, WbpB, WbpE, and
WbpD incubated together do not show the presence of the novel peak, but the
electropherogram shows several new peaks caused by the addition of
UV-detectable acetyl-CoA (cofactor for WbpD). In all traces, the small peak at
∼11.1 min is a minor contaminant present in the NAD+.
