glycosyltransferase
glycogen/starch synthase
Mutations in this domain of Swiss:P37287 lead to disease (Paroxysmal Nocturnal haemoglobinuria). Members of this family transfer activated sugars to a variety of substrates, including glycogen, Fructose-6-phosphate and lipopolysaccharides. Members of this family transfer UDP, ADP, GDP or CMP linked sugars. The eukaryotic glycogen synthases may be distant members of this family. (from Pfam)
glycogen/starch synthase, ADP-glucose type
This family consists of glycogen (or starch) synthases that use ADP-glucose (EC 2.4.1.21), rather than UDP-glucose (EC 2.4.1.11) as in animals, as the glucose donor. This enzyme is found in bacteria and plants. Whether the name given is glycogen synthase or starch synthase depends on context, and therefore on substrate.
glycogen synthase
glycogen synthase catalyzes the formation and elongation of the alpha-1,4-glucose backbone using ADP-glucose, a key step of glycogen biosynthesis
