| 4-O-[(2R)-glycerylphospho]-N-acetyl-beta-D-mannosaminyl-(1->4)-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosaminyl di-trans,octa-cis-undecaprenyl diphosphate + n CDP-glycerol <=> 4-O-{[(2R)-1-glycerylphospho](n)-(2R)-1-glycerylphospho}-N-acetyl-beta-D-mannosaminyl-(1->4)-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosaminyl undecaprenyl diphosphate + n CMP + n H(+) |
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- Involved in the biosynthesis of poly glycerol phosphate teichoic
acids in bacterial cell walls.
- This enzyme adds 30-50 glycerol units to the linker molecule,
but only after it has been primed with the first glycerol unit by
EC 2.7.8.44.
- Cf. EC 2.7.8.45.
