physiological function | the bifunctional enzyme N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate uridyltransferase, GlmU, catalyzes two-step formation of UDP-GlcNAc, an important precursor in bacterial peptidoglycan and lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis, which are important constituents of the cell wall of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The first activity of GlmU, the C-terminal domain (acetyltransferase), catalyzes the formation of N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate from glucosamine-1-phosphate using acetyl-CoA as the acetyl donor. The second activity of GlmU, the N-terminal and rate-limiting domain (uridyltransferase), catalyzes the formation of UDP-GlcNAc from GlcNAc-1-phosphate and uridine triphosphate, UTP | Xanthomonas oryzae |
