GLG2

Gene
GLG2
Protein
Glycogenin-2
Organism
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain YJM789)
Length
380 amino acids
Function
Self-glucosylating initiator of glycogen synthesis. Catalyzes the formation of a short alpha (1,4)-glucosyl chain covalently attached to internal tyrosine residues. These chains act as primers for the elongation reaction catalyzed by glycogen synthase (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 8 family. Glycogenin subfamily.

Protein
Glycogenin-2
Organism
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c)
Length
380 amino acids
Function
Self-glucosylating initiator of glycogen synthesis. Catalyzes the formation of a short alpha (1,4)-glucosyl chain covalently attached via a glucose 1-O-tyrosyl linkage to internal tyrosine residues. These chains act as primers for the elongation reaction catalyzed by glycogen synthase. Capable of transferring glucosyl residues to unbound acceptors such as free oligoglucans or oligoglucan derivatives.
Similarity
Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 8 family. Glycogenin subfamily.
