DE RecName: Full=UTP--glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase; DE EC=2.7.7.9; DE AltName: Full=UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase; DE Short=UDPGP; DE AltName: Full=Alpha-D-glucosyl-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase; DE AltName: Full=Uridine diphosphoglucose pyrophosphorylase; GN Name=gtaB; OrderedLocusNames=SAOUHSC_02801; OS Staphylococcus aureus (strain NCTC 8325). OC Bacteria; Firmicutes; Bacillales; Staphylococcus. OX NCBI_TaxID=93061; RN [1] RP NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE [LARGE SCALE GENOMIC DNA]. RA Gillaspy A.F., Worrell V., Orvis J., Roe B.A., Dyer D.W., RA Iandolo J.J.; RT "The Staphylococcus aureus NCTC8325 genome."; RL Submitted (JAN-2006) to the EMBL/GenBank/DDBJ databases. RN [2] RP FUNCTION IN GLYCOLIPID AND LTA BIOSYNTHESIS, AND PATHWAY. RX PubMed=17209021; DOI=10.1128/JB.01683-06; RA Gruendling A., Schneewind O.; RT "Genes required for glycolipid synthesis and lipoteichoic acid RT anchoring in Staphylococcus aureus."; RL J. Bacteriol. 189:2521-2530(2007). CC -!- FUNCTION: Catalyzes the formation of UDP-glucose from glucose-1- CC phosphate and UTP (Probable). 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). 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.
