Subfamily of Glycosyltransferase Family GT2 of unknown function. GT-2 includes diverse families of glycosyltransferases with a common GT-A type structural fold, which has two tightly associated beta/alpha/beta domains that tend to form a continuous central sheet of at least eight beta-strands. These are enzymes that catalyze the transfer of sugar moieties from activated donor molecules to specific acceptor molecules, forming glycosidic bonds. Glycosyltransferases have been classified into more than 90 distinct sequence based families.

Glycosyltransferase, GT2 family [Carbohydrate transport and metabolism].

Glycosyl transferase family 2. Diverse family, transferring sugar from UDP-glucose, UDP-N-acetyl- galactosamine, GDP-mannose or CDP-abequose, to a range of substrates including cellulose, dolichol phosphate and teichoic acids.

RfbF is a putative dTDP-rhamnosyl transferase. Shigella flexneri RfbF protein is a putative dTDP-rhamnosyl transferase. dTDP rhamnosyl transferases of Shigella flexneri add rhamnose sugars to N-acetyl-glucosamine in the O-antigen tetrasaccharide repeat. Lipopolysaccharide O antigens are important virulence determinants for many bacteria. The variations of sugar composition, the sequence of the sugars and the linkages in the O antigen provide structural diversity of the O antigen.
