2.7.7.23	additional information	glycosylation pathway	
2.7.7.23	additional information	bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes two consecutive reactions leading to the biosynthesis of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine, in the first reaction, GlmU catalyzes the CoA-dependent acetylation of glucosamine-1-phosphate to afford N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate, in the second reaction, the UMP moiety from a UTP molecule is transferred to N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine 1-phosphate to give the final product UDP-GlcNAc
