Organism

Dictyostelium discoideum (Slime mold) [Complete proteome]

Taxonomic identifier

44689 [NCBI]

Taxonomic lineage

Eukaryota › Amoebozoa › Mycetozoa › Dictyosteliida › Dictyostelium

Protein attributes

Sequence length	511 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Protein existence	Evidence at transcript level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Plays a central role as a glucosyl donor in cellular metabolic pathways. During development the lack of the enzyme activity leads to cell death and lysis. Strains which lack UDPG pyrophosphorylase accomplish early developmental events but are unable to culminate. The enzyme affects the growth rate of the cells but is not essential for growth. Ref.1
Catalytic activity	UTP + alpha-D-glucose 1-phosphate = diphosphate + UDP-glucose.
Pathway	Carbohydrate metabolism; galactose metabolism.
Developmental stage	Expressed in both prestalk and prespore cells. Expression becomes strong after 12 hours of development and peaks at 16 hours. Ref.5
Induction	By cAMP through transmembrane signal transduction. Ref.4
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the UDPGP type 1 family.
