RX PubMed=16517273; DOI=10.1016/S0140-6736(06)68231-7; RA Diep B.A., Gill S.R., Chang R.F., Phan T.H., Chen J.H., Davidson M.G., RA Lin F., Lin J., Carleton H.A., Mongodin E.F., Sensabaugh G.F., RA Perdreau-Remington F.; RT "Complete genome sequence of USA300, an epidemic clone of community- RT acquired meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus."; RL Lancet 367:731-739(2006). CC -!- FUNCTION: Catalyzes the formation of UDP-glucose from glucose-1- CC phosphate and UTP. This is an intermediate step in the CC biosynthesis of diglucosyl-diacylglycerol (Glc2-DAG), i.e. the CC predominant glycolipid found in the S.aureus membrane, which is CC also used as a membrane anchor for lipoteichoic acid (LTA) (By CC similarity). CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: UTP + alpha-D-glucose 1-phosphate = CC diphosphate + UDP-glucose. CC -!- PATHWAY: Glycolipid metabolism; diglucosyl-diacylglycerol CC biosynthesis. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the UDPGP type 2 family.
