Protein name UDP-N-acetylhexosamine pyrophosphorylase (Antigen X) (AGX) (Protein-pyrophosphorylation enzyme) (EC 2.7.4.-) (Sperm-associated antigen 2) (UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine pyrophosphorylase) (EC 2.7.7.83) (UDP-N-acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase) (EC 2.7.7.23)
Protein function Catalyzes the last step in biosynthesis of uridine diphosphate-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) by converting UTP and glucosamine 1-phosphate (GlcNAc-1-P) to the sugar nucleotide (PubMed:9603950, PubMed:9765219). Also converts UTP and galactosam
