IUBMB Comments

Involved in the biosynthesis of poly(ribitol-phosphate) teichoic acids in the cell wall of the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus. This enzyme adds an N-acetyl-β-D-glucosamine to the OH group at the 2 position of the ribitol phosphate units. cf. EC 2.4.1.70 [poly(ribitol-phosphate) α-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase].

The expected taxonomic range for this enzyme is: Staphylococcus aureus

Synonyms
SAV0258, TarS, more
