Teichoic acid poly(glycerol phosphate) polymerase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q5HLM5
n CDP-glycerol + 4-O-((2R)-glycerophospho)-N-acetyl-beta-D-mannosaminyl- (1->4)-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosaminyl-diphospho-ditrans,octacis- undecaprenol = n CMP + 4-O-(((2R)-glycerophospho)n-(2R)-glycerophospho)- N-acetyl-beta-D-mannosaminyl-(1->4)-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosaminyl- diphospho-ditrans,octacis-undecaprenol.
-!- 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.
