Mutations in this domain of Swiss:P37287 lead to disease (Paroxysmal Nocturnal haemoglobinuria). Members of this family transfer activated sugars to a variety of substrates, including glycogen, Fructose-6-phosphate and lipopolysaccharides. Members of this family transfer UDP, ADP, GDP or CMP linked sugars. The eukaryotic glycogen synthases may be distant members of this family.

This entry represents the EPBD domain (ENOD40 peptide binding domain, also referred to as SSN2) of sucrose synthases, which corresponds to the second domain and together with the N-terminal one, referred to as the cellular targeting domain (CTD) have regulatory functions in plant species, however, the function of these domains in bacteria is not yet clear [1,2]. Sucrose synthases are sucrose-cleaving enzymes that provides UDP-glucose and fructose for various metabolic pathways.
Sucrose synthases catalyse the synthesis of sucrose from UDP-glucose and fructose. This represents the first GT-B domain (also referred to as GT-BN in [1] of sucrose synthases, while the second one, at the C-terminal (GT-BC), is represented in Pfam:P ...
Sucrose synthases catalyse the synthesis of sucrose from UDP-glucose and fructose. This represents the first GT-B domain (also referred to as GT-BN in [1] of sucrose synthases, while the second one, at the C-terminal (GT-BC), is represented in Pfam:PF00534 [1,2]. The substrates of these proteins (UDP-Glc or UDP and fructose) bound in the cleft between the GT-B domains [1].
