Glucosyl-3-phosphoglycerate synthase

Glucosyl-3-phosphoglycerate synthase (, GpgS protein, GPG synthase, glucosylphosphoglycerate synthase) is an enzyme with systematic name NDP-glucose:3-phospho-D-glycerate 2-alpha-D-glucosyltransferase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * NDP-glucose + 3-phospho-D-glycerate $$\rightleftharpoons$$ NDP + 2-O-(alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-3-phospho-D-glycerate

The enzyme is involved in biosynthesis of 2-O-(alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-glycerate.
