FunFam 242: Glucosyl-3-phosphoglycerate synthase

There are 1 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Glucosyl-3-phosphoglycerate synthase. [EC: 2.4.1.266]
NDP-glucose + 3-phospho-D-glycerate = NDP + 2-O-(alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)- 3-phospho-D-glycerate.
  • 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.
