| Accepted name: |
phosphopolyprenol glucosyltransferase |
| Reaction: |
UDP-glucose + polyprenyl phosphate = UDP + polyprenylphosphate-glucose |
| Other name(s): |
uridine diphosphoglucose-polyprenol monophosphate glucosyltransferase; UDP-glucose:polyprenol monophosphate glucosyltransferase |
| Systematic name: |
UDP-glucose:phosphopolyprenol D-glucosyltransferase |
| Comments: |
Ficaprenyl phosphate is the best substrate; other polyprenols can also act as substrates, but more slowly. |
