Type: | Domain | Name: | Glucosylglycerol-phosphate synthase |
Description: | Glucosylglycerol-phosphate synthase catalyses the key step in the biosynthesis of the osmolyte glucosylglycerol. It is known in several cyanobacteria and in Pseudomonas anguilliseptica. The enzyme is closely related to the alpha,alpha-trehalose-phosphate synthase, likewise involved in osmolyte biosynthesis, of Escherichia coliand many other bacteria. A close homologue from Xanthomonas campestrisis excluded from this family. | Short Name: | Gluc_glyc_Psyn |
