Structure Motif Annotation: Mechanism and Catalytic Site Atlas M-CSA Database Homepage Chains Enzyme Name Description Catalytic Residues UDP-N-acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase
M-CSA #811
The bifunctional enzyme GlmU is able to catalyse two steps in the pathway of bacterial cell wall synthesis:
The C-terminal domain converts glucosamine-1-phosphate to N-acetyl glucosamine-1-phosphate using Acetyl CoA as the donor The N-terminal domain (this entry) utilises UTP to activate the N-acetyl glucosamine-1-phosphate forming UDP-acetyl-glucosamine and pyrophosphate. Interest in the processes catalysed by this enzyme stems from its potential as an antibiotic target.
