EC 2.4.1.66

Accepted name: procollagen glucosyltransferase

Reaction: UDP-α-D-glucose + [procollagen]-(5R)-5-O-(β-D-galactosyl)-5-hydroxy-L-lysine = UDP + [procollagen]-(5R)-5-O-[α-D-glucosyl-(1→2)-β-D-galactosyl]-5-hydroxy-L-lysine

Other name(s): galactosylhydroxylysine glucosyltransferase; collagen glucosyltransferase; collagen hydroxylysyl glucosyltransferase; galactosylhydroxylysyl glucosyltransferase; UDP-glucose-collagenglucosyltransferase; uridine diphosphoglucose-collagen glucosyltransferase; UDP-glucose:5-(D-galactosyloxy)-L-lysine-procollagen D-glucosyltransferase; UDP-glucose:(5R)-5-O-(β-D-galactosyl)-5-hydroxy-L-lysine-[procollagen] D-glucosyltransferase

Systematic name: UDP-α-D-glucose:[procollagen]-(5R)-5-O-(β-D-galactosyl)-5-hydroxy-L-lysine 2-α-D-glucosyltransferase (configuration-retaining)

Comments: Probably involved in the synthesis of carbohydrate units in complement (cf. EC 2.4.1.50 procollagen galactosyltransferase).
