Ontology Term : Pfam:PF01704 UTP--glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase EMBL-EBI

Description  This family consists of UTP--glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferases, EC:2.7.7.9. Also known as UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (UDPGP) and Glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase. UTP--glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase catalyses the interconversion of MgUTP + glucose-1-phosphate and UDP-glucose + MgPPi [1]. UDP-glucose is an important intermediate in mammalian carbohydrate interconversion involved in various metabolic roles depending on tissue type [1]. In Dictyostelium (slime mold) mutants in this enzyme abort the development cycle [2]. Also within the family is UDP-N-acetylglucosamine Swiss:Q16222 or AGX1 [3] and two hypothetical proteins from Borrelia burgdorferi the lyme disease spirochaete Swiss:O51893 and Swiss:O51036.
