KEGG   ENZYME: 2.4.1.113
Entry
EC 2.4.1.113                Enzyme                                 
Name
alpha-1,4-glucan-protein synthase (ADP-forming);
ADP-glucose:protein glucosyltransferase;
adenosine diphosphoglucose-protein glucosyltransferase
Class
Transferases;
Glycosyltransferases;
Hexosyltransferases
Sysname
ADP-glucose:protein 4-alpha-D-glucosyltransferase
Reaction(IUBMB)
ADP-glucose + protein = ADP + alpha-D-glucosyl-protein [RN:R02420]
Reaction(KEGG)
R02420
Substrate
ADP-glucose [CPD:C00498];
protein [CPD:C00017]
Product
ADP [CPD:C00008];
alpha-D-glucosyl-protein [CPD:C01140]
Comment
The enzyme builds up alpha-1,4-glucan chains covalently bound to protein, thus acting as an initiator of glycogen synthesis.
