Class of enzymes / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
UDP-N-acetylglucosamine—undecaprenyl-phosphate N-acetylglucosaminephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.33, UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:undecaprenyl-phosphate GlcNAc-1-phosphate transferase, WecA, WecA transferase, UDP-GIcNAc:undecaprenyl phosphate N-acetylglucosaminyl 1-P transferase, GlcNAc-P-P-Und synthase, GPT, TagO, UDP-GlcNAc:undecaprenyl-phosphate GlcNAc-1-phosphate transferase, UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine:ditrans,octacis-undecaprenyl phosphate N-acetylglucosaminephosphotransferase) is an enzyme with systematic name UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine:ditrans,octacis-undecaprenyl phosphate N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosaminephosphotransferase.[1][2][3][4] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine + ditrans, octacis-undecaprenyl phosphate UMP + N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosaminyldiphospho-ditrans, octacis-undecaprenol
