ENZYME

ENZYME entry: EC 2.4.1.266

Accepted Name
glucosyl-3-phosphoglycerate synthase
Alternative Name(s)
glucosylphosphoglycerate synthase
GPG synthase
Reaction catalysed
(2R)-3-phosphoglycerate + an NDP-alpha-D-glucose <=> (2R)-2-O-(alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-3-phospho-glycerate + a ribonucleoside 5'-diphosphate + H(+)
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme is involved in biosynthesis of 2-O-(alpha-D- glucopyranosyl)-D-glycerate via the two-step pathway in which glucosyl-3-phosphoglycerate synthase catalyzes the conversion of GDP- glucose and 3-phospho-D-glycerate into 2-O-(alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)- 3-phospho-D-glycerate, which is then converted to 2-O-(alpha-D- glucopyranosyl)-D-glycerate by EC 3.1.3.85.
  • The activity is dependent on divalent cations (Mn(2+), Co(2+), or Mg(2+)).
  • The enzyme from Persephonella marina shows moderate flexibility on the sugar donor concerning the nucleotide moiety (UDP-glucose, ADP- glucose, GDP-glucose) but is strictly specific for glucose.
  • The enzyme is also strictly specific for 3-phospho-D-glycerate as acceptor.
  • The enzyme from Methanococcoides burtonii is strictly specific for GDP-glucose and 3-phospho-D-glycerate.
  • This enzyme catalyzes the first glucosylation step in methylglucose lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis in mycobacteria.
