Gene: [00.0/SPAG2] UDP-N-acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase 1; sperm associated antigen 2 (antigen X);
FUN |
UDP-N-acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase catalyzes the final step of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) biosynthesis from fructose-6-phosphate. In eukaryotes, UDP-GlcNAc is used in the GlcNAc moiety of N-linked glycosylation and the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchor of cellular proteins (Mio-1998)." |
