GENE NAME
Glucose-1-phosphate adenylyltransferase
ORGANISM
Mycobacterium ulcerans (strain Agy99)
GENE NAME
glgC
GENE ID
4549918
TDR TARGET ID
954310
PROTEIN LENGTH
404
ASSOCIATED METABOLIC PATHWAYS
Starch and sucrose metabolism, Amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism
FUNCTION
Involved in the biosynthesis of ADP-glucose, a building block, required in the biosynthesis of maltose-1-phosphate (M1P) and in the elongation reactions to produce linear alpha-1,4-glucans. Catalyzes the reaction between ATP and alpha-D-glucose 1-phosphate (G1P) to produce pyrophosphate and ADP-Glc.
