3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic-acid transferase [Cell wall/membrane/envelope biogenesis].

3-Deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic-acid transferase (kdotransferase). Members of this family transfer activated sugars to a variety of substrates, including glycogen, fructose-6-phosphate and lipopolysaccharides. Members of the family transfer UDP, ADP, GDP or CMP linked sugars. The Glycos_transf_N region is flanked at the N-terminus by a signal peptide and at the C-terminus by Glycos_transf_1 (pfam00534). The eukaryotic glycogen synthases may be distant members of this bacterial family.

beta-diglucosyldiacylglycerol synthase and similar proteins. beta-diglucosyldiacylglycerol synthase (processive diacylglycerol beta-glucosyltransferase EC 2.4.1.315) is involved in the biosynthesis of both the bilayer- and non-bilayer-forming membrane glucolipids. This family of glycosyltransferases also contains plant major galactolipid synthase (chloroplastic monogalactosyldiacylglycerol synthase 1 EC 2.4.1.46). Glycosyltransferases catalyze the transfer of sugar moieties from activated donor molecules to specific acceptor molecules, forming glycosidic bonds. The acceptor molecule can be a lipid, a protein, a heterocyclic compound, or another carbohydrate residue. The structures of the formed glycoconjugates are extremely diverse, reflecting a wide range of biological functions. The members of this family share a common GTB topology, one of the two protein topologies observed for nucleotide-sugar-dependent glycosyltransferases. GTB proteins have distinct N- and C- terminal domains each containing a typical Rossmann fold. The two domains have high structural homology despite minimal sequence homology. The large cleft that separates the two domains includes the catalytic center and permits a high degree of flexibility.
