Protein
Glucose-1-phosphate adenylyltransferase large subunit 1, chloroplastic/amyloplastic
Organism
Oryza sativa subsp. japonica
Function
Involved in synthesis of starch. Catalyzes the synthesis of ADP-glucose, a molecule that serves as an activated glycosyl donor for alpha-1,4-glucan synthesis. Essential for starch synthesis in leaf chloroplasts and endosperm amyloplasts.
Similarity
Belongs to the bacterial/plant glucose-1-phosphate adenylyltransferase family.
