General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism the following assembly mechanism is proposed. Polymer synthesis starts with GlgE and its donor substrate, alpha-maltose 1-phosphate, yielding a linear oligomer with a degree of polymerization (of about 16) sufficient for GlgB to introduce a branch. Branching involves strictly intrachain transfer to generate a C chain (the only constituent chain to retain its reducing end), which now bears an A chain (a nonreducing end terminal branch that does not itself bear a branch). GlgE preferentially extends A chains allowing GlgB to act iteratively to generate new A chains emanating from B chains (nonterminal branches that themselves bear a branch). Although extension and branching occur primarily with A chains, the other chain types are sometimes extended and branched such that some B chains (and possibly C chains) bear more than one branch Streptomyces coelicolor
