Reaction: UDP-β-L-arabinofuranose + [protein]-trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline = UDP + [protein]-O-(β-L-arabinofuranosyl)-trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline
Glossary: trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline = (2S,4R)-4-hydroxyproline = (4R)-4-hydroxy-L-proline
Other name(s): HPAT
Systematic name: UDP-β-L-arabinofuranose:[protein]-trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline L-arabinofuranosyl transferase (configuration-retaining)
Comments: The enzyme, found in plants and mosses, catalyses the O-arabinosylation of hydroxyprolines in hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins. The enzyme acts on the first hydroxyproline in the motif Val-hydroxyPro-hydroxyPro-Ser.
