UDP-N,N'-diacetylbacillosamine 2-epimerase (hydrolysing) (EC 3.2.1.184, UDP-Bac2Ac4Ac 2-epimerase, NeuC) is an enzyme with systematic name UDP-N,N'-diacetylbacillosamine hydrolase (2-epimerising).[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- UDP-N,N'-diacetylbacillosamine + H2O UDP + 2,4-diacetamido-2,4,6-trideoxy-D-mannopyranose
 
This enzyme requires Mg2+. It is involved in biosynthesis of legionaminic acid.
