AltName: Full=Undecaprenyl-phosphate GlcNAc-1-phosphate transferase;
Gene name Name=wecA;

Comments [?]

FUNCTIONCatalyzes the transfer of the GlcNAc-1-phosphate moiety from UDP-GlcNAc onto the carrier lipid undecaprenyl phosphate (C55-P), yielding GlcNAc-pyrophosphoryl-undecaprenyl (GlcNAc-PP-C55).
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Reaction=di-trans,octa-cis-undecaprenyl phosphate + UDP-N-acetyl-alpha- D-glucosamine = N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosaminyl-di-trans,octa-cis- undecaprenyl diphosphate + UMP; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:28090, ChEBI:CHEBI:57705, ChEBI:CHEBI:57865, ChEBI:CHEBI:60392, ChEBI:CHEBI:62959; EC=2.7.8.33;
COFACTOR Name=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:18420;
COFACTOR Name=Mn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29035;
PATHWAYBacterial outer membrane biogenesis; LPS O-antigen biosynthesis.
case <OC:Enterobacterales>
PATHWAYBacterial outer membrane biogenesis; enterobacterial common antigen biosynthesis.
end case
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONCell inner membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
SIMILARITYBelongs to the glycosyltransferase 4 family. WecA subfamily.
