CC -!- FUNCTION: Involved in the biosynthesis of the disaccharide D-N-
CC acetylglucosamine-L-rhamnose which plays an important role in the
CC mycobacterial cell wall as a linker connecting arabinogalactan and
CC peptidoglycan via a phosphodiester linkage. Catalyzes the transfer of
CC the N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate (GlcNAc-1P) moiety from UDP-GlcNAc
CC onto the carrier lipid decaprenyl phosphate (C50-P), yielding GlcNAc-
CC pyrophosphoryl-decaprenyl (GlcNAc-PP-C50) (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=trans,octa-cis-decaprenyl phosphate + UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-
CC glucosamine = N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosaminyl-1-diphospho-trans,octa-
CC cis-decaprenol + UMP; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:34071, ChEBI:CHEBI:57705,
CC ChEBI:CHEBI:57865, ChEBI:CHEBI:65079, ChEBI:CHEBI:65080; EC=2.7.8.35;
CC -!- COFACTOR:
CC Name=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:18420; Evidence={ECO:0000250};
CC -!- COFACTOR:
CC Name=Mn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29035; Evidence={ECO:0000250};
CC -!- PATHWAY: Cell wall biogenesis; cell wall polysaccharide biosynthesis.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane
CC protein {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 4 family. WecA
CC subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- SEQUENCE CAUTION:
CC Sequence=AAK45603.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Truncated N-terminus.; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
