Taxonomic lineage

Bacteria › Firmicutes › Bacillales › Staphylococcus

Protein attributes

Sequence length	288 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Inferred from homology.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Catalyzes the formation of UDP-glucose from glucose-1-phosphate and UTP. This is an intermediate step in the biosynthesis of diglucosyl-diacylglycerol (Glc2-DAG), i.e. the predominant glycolipid found in the S.aureus membrane, which is also used as a membrane anchor for lipoteichoic acid (LTA) By similarity.
Catalytic activity	UTP + alpha-D-glucose 1-phosphate = diphosphate + UDP-glucose.
Pathway	Glycolipid metabolism; diglucosyl-diacylglycerol biosynthesis.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the UDPGP type 2 family.
