2.4.1.342 |
| Accepted name: |
α-maltose-1-phosphate synthase |
| Reaction: |
ADP-α-D-glucose + α-D-glucose-1-phosphate = ADP + α-maltose-1-phosphate |
| Glossary: |
maltose = α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-D-glucose |
| Other name(s): |
glgM (gene name) |
| Systematic name: |
ADP-α-D-glucose:α-D-glucose-1-phosphate 4-α-D-glucosyltransferase (configuration-retaining) |
| Comments: |
The enzyme, found in Mycobacteria, can also use UDP-α-D-glucose with much lower catalytic efficiency. |
