Description
This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing nucleotide groups (nucleotidyltransferases). The systematic name of this enzyme class is CTP:alpha-D-glucose-1-phosphate cytidylyltransferase. Other names in common use include CDP glucose pyrophosphorylase, cytidine diphosphoglucose pyrophosphorylase, cytidine diphosphate glucose pyrophosphorylase, cytidine diphosphate-D-glucose pyrophosphorylase, and CTP:D-glucose-1-phosphate cytidylyltransferase. This enzyme participates in starch and sucrose metabolism and nucleotide sugars metabolism.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
CDP glucose pyrophosphorylase; cytidine diphosphoglucose pyrophosphorylase; cytidine diphosphate glucose pyrophosphorylase; cytidine diphosphate-D-glucose pyrophosphorylase; CTP:D-glucose-1-phosphate cytidylyltransferase
Reaction
CTP + α-D-glucose 1-phosphate = diphosphate + CDP-glucose
