Comments [?]

Function Maltosyltransferase that uses maltose 1-phosphate (M1P) as the sugar donor to elongate linear or branched alpha-(1->4)-glucans. Is involved in a branched alpha-glucan biosynthetic pathway from trehalose, together with TreS, Mak and GlgB.
Catalytic activity RHEA:42692: [(1->4)-alpha-D-glucosyl](n) + alpha-maltose 1-phosphate = [(1->4)-alpha-D-glucosyl](n+2) + phosphate
EC 2.4.99.16
case <OC:Mycobacterium>
Pathway Glycan biosynthesis; glycogen biosynthesis.
end case
Subunit Homodimer.
Similarity Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 13 family. GlgE subfamily.

Comments The "GlgE pathway" has been shown to be involved in the conversion of trehalosee to glycogen in M.smegmatis (see PubMed=18505459), but it may be also involved in the biosynthesis of other types of alpha(1->4)-glucans.
