EC 2.7.9.4     
Accepted name: α-glucan, water dikinase
Reaction: ATP + α-glucan + H2O = AMP + phospho-α-glucan + phosphate
Other name(s): starch-related R1 protein; GWD
Systematic name: ATP:α-glucan, water phosphotransferase
Comments: Requires Mg2+. ATP appears to be the only phosphate donor. No activity could be detected using GTP, UTP, phosphoenolpyruvate or diphosphate [1]. The protein phosphorylates glucans exclusively on O-6 of glucosyl residues [2]. The protein phosphorylates itself with the β-phosphate of ATP, which is then transferred to the glucan [1].
