ENTRY EC 2.4.1.113
NAME alpha-1,4-Glucan-protein synthase (ADP-forming)
CLASS Transferases
Glycosyltransferases
Hexosyltransferases
SYSNAME ADPglucose:protein 4-alpha-D-glucosyltransferase
REACTION ADPglucose + Protein = ADP + alpha-D-Glucosyl-protein
SUBSTRATE ADPglucose
Protein
PRODUCT ADP
alpha-D-Glucosyl-protein
COMMENT The enzyme builds up alpha-1,4-glucan chains covalently bound to
protein thus acting as an initiator of glycogen synthesis.
