Accepted name: |
D-glycero-α-D-manno-heptose 1-phosphate guanylyltransferase |
Reaction: |
D-glycero-α-D-manno-heptose 1-phosphate + GTP = GDP-D-glycero-α-D-manno-heptose + diphosphate |
Other name(s): |
hddC (gene name); gmhD (gene name) |
Systematic name: |
GTP:D-glycero-α-D-manno-heptose 1-phosphate guanylyltransferase |
Comments: |
The enzyme is involved in biosynthesis of GDP-D-glycero-α-D-manno-heptose, which is required for assembly of S-layer glycoprotein in some Gram-positive bacteria. |
