N-acetylneuraminate synthase activity

Known as: N-acetylneuraminate pyruvate-lyase (pyruvate-phosphorylating) activity, (NANA)condensing enzyme activity, N-acetylneuraminic acid synthase activity 
Catalysis of the reaction: phosphoenolpyruvate + N-acetyl-D-mannosamine + H2O = phosphate + N-acetylneuraminate. [EC:2.5.1.56, MetaCyc:N…
