Enzyme Commission Number
EC 2.4.1.153
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
UDP-N-acetyl-α-D-glucosamine + dolichyl phosphate = UDP + dolichyl N-acetyl-α-D-glucosaminyl phosphate
Systematic Name
UDP-N-acetyl-α-D-glucosamine:dolichyl-phosphate α-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyltransferase
Function
The enzyme, characterized from the methanogenic archaeon Methanococcus voltae, initiates N-linked glycosylation in that organism. The enzyme differs from the eukaryotic enzyme, which leaves one additional phosphate group on the dolichyl product (cf. EC 2.7.8.15, UDP-N-acetylglucosamine—dolichyl-phosphate N-acetylglucosaminephosphotransferase).
Other name
aglK (gene name); dolichyl-phosphate α-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase; UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine:dolichyl-phosphate α-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyltransferase
