glfT1

Gene
glfT1
Protein
Galactofuranosyltransferase GlfT1
Organism
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (strain CDC 1551 / Oshkosh)
Length
304 amino acids
Function
Involved in the biosynthesis of the arabinogalactan (AG) region of the mycolylarabinogalactan-peptidoglycan (mAGP) complex, an essential component of the mycobacterial cell wall. Catalyzes the transfer of the first two galactofuranosyl (Galf) units from UDP-galactofuranose (UDP-Galf) onto the rhamnosyl-GlcNAc-diphospho-decaprenol (Rha-GlcNAc-PP-C50) acceptor, yielding galactofuranosyl-galactofuranosyl-rhamnosyl-GlcNAc-diphospho-decaprenol (Galf-Galf-Rha-GlcNAc-PP-C50). Thus, GlfT1 is the initiator of galactan synthesis, while GlfT2 continues with the subsequent polymerization events.
Similarity
Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 2 family.
