Accepted name: |
L-glutamine-phosphate cytidylyltransferase |
Reaction: |
CTP + N5-phospho-L-glutamine = diphosphate + N5-(cytidine 5′-diphosphoramidyl)-L-glutamine |
Systematic name: |
CTP:phosphoglutamine cytidylyltransferase |
Comments: |
The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Campylobacter jejuni, is involved in formation of a unique O-methyl phosphoramidate modification on specific sugar residues within the bacterium’s capsular polysaccharides. |
