Functional narrative |
Converts UDP and GlcNAc-1-P into UDP-GlcNAc, and UDP and GalNAc-1-P into UDP-GalNAc. Isoform AGX1 has 2 to 3 times higher activity towards GalNAc-1-P, while isoform AGX2 has 8 times more activity towards GlcNAc-1-P.

Comments |
Insertion of the I loop disrupts the ability of the protein to dimerize in solution. Dimerization leads to an occluded active site, thus in isoform AGX2 the active site remains open to the environment.
Previous entry DP00363 has been split into canonical isoform (DP00363) and the alternatively-spliced isoform 2 DP00363_A002. Disorder is characterized on the alternatively-spliced product.
