DE   poly(glycerol-phosphate) alpha-glucosyltransferase.
AN   UDP glucose-poly(glycerol-phosphate) alpha-glucosyltransferase.
CA   4-O-{[(2R)-1-glycerylphospho](n)-(2R)-1-glycerylphospho}-N-acetyl-beta-D-
CA   mannosaminyl-(1->4)-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosaminyl undecaprenyl

CA   glycerylphospho](n)-(2R)-1-glycerylphospho}-N-acetyl-beta-D-mannosaminyl-

CA   n UDP.
CC   -!- Involved in the biosynthesis of poly glycerol phosphate teichoic
CC       acids in bacterial cell walls.
CC   -!- This enzyme, isolated from Bacillus subtilis 168, adds an alpha-D-
CC       glucose to the free OH groups of the glycerol units.
CC   -!- The enzyme has a strong preference for UDP-alpha-glucose as the sugar
CC       donor.
CC   -!- It has no activity with poly(ribitol phosphate).
