Comments [?]

Function Catalyzes 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 RHEA:28090: di-trans,octa-cis-undecaprenyl phosphate + UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine = N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosaminyl-1-diphospho-di-trans,octa-cis-undecaprenol + UMP
EC 2.7.8.33
Cofactor Mg(2+)
Mn(2+)
Pathway Bacterial outer membrane biogenesis; LPS O-antigen biosynthesis.
