IUBMB Comments

The enzyme, characterized from the methanogenic archaeon Methanococcus voltae, initiates N-linked glycosylation in that organism. The enzyme differs from the eukaryotic enzyme, which leaves one additional phosphate group on the dolichyl product (cf. EC 2.7.8.15, UDP-N-acetylglucosamine—dolichyl-phosphate N-acetylglucosaminephosphotransferase).

The expected taxonomic range for this enzyme is: Methanococcus voltae

Synonyms
acetylglucosaminyltransferase, uridine diphosphoacetylglucosamine-dolichol phosphate, AglK, Dol-P-GlcNAc synthase, dolichyl phosphate acetylglucosaminyltransferase, dolichyl phosphate N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase, dolichyl-phosphate alpha-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase, UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-dolichol phosphate N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase, more
