Most glycosyltransferase enzymes form one of two folds: GT-A or GT-B. Glycosyltransferases (GTFs, Gtfs) are enzymes that establish natural glycosidic linkages.They catalyze the transfer of saccharide moieties from an activated nucleotide sugar (also known as the "glycosyl donor") to a nucleophilic glycosyl acceptor molecule, the nucleophile of which can be oxygen- carbon-, nitrogen-, or sulfur ...
N-glycosyltransferase is an enzyme in prokaryotes which transfers individual hexoses onto asparagine sidechains in substrate proteins, using a nucleotide-bound intermediary, within the cytoplasm. They are distinct from regular N -glycosylating enzymes , which are oligosaccharyltransferases that transfer pre-assembled oligosaccharides .
Beta-glucosyltransferase is an enzyme, or more specifically an inverting glycosyltransferase (GT). In other words, it transfers glucose from uridine diphospho-glucose (UDPglucose) to an acceptor, modified DNA through beta-Glycosidic bond. The role of the enzyme is to protect the infecting viral DNA from the bacteria's restriction enzymes ...
These enzymes catalyse the transfer of sugar moieties from activated donor molecules to specific acceptor molecules, forming glycosidic bonds. A classification of glycosyltransferases using nucleotide diphospho-sugar, nucleotide monophospho-sugar and sugar phosphates ( EC 2.4.1.- ) and related proteins into distinct sequence based families has ...
In enzymology, a cyclomaltodextrin glucanotransferase (also cyclodextrin glycosyl transferase or CGTase for short) (EC 2.4.1.19) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction of cyclizing part of a 1,4-alpha-D-glucan molecule through the formation of a 1,4-alpha-D-glucosidic bond.
Glycogen debranching enzyme is the only known eukaryotic enzyme that contains multiple catalytic sites and is active as a monomer. [ 21 ] [ 22 ] Some studies have shown that the C-terminal half of yeast GDE is associated with glucosidase activity, while the N-terminal half is associated with glucosyltransferase activity. [ 19 ]
City officials Friday reported higher than permitted levels of enterococcus in a single sample of effluent from the Kailua Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant. The sample, which was taken at 8 :08 ...
Glucosyltransferases are a type of glycosyltransferase that enable the transfer of glucose. [1] Examples include: glycogen synthase; glycogen phosphorylase; They are categorized under EC number 2.4.1.
