gcaD

UDP-N-acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase of Bacillus megaterium. The enzyme is bifunctional and catalyses the conversion of glucosamine 1-phosphate to N-acetyl glucosamine 1-phosphate as well as the conversion of N-acetyl glucosamine 1-phosphate to UDP-N-acetyl glucosamine, a key precursor molecule for hyaluronic acid production.

Improvement

2018 SSTi-SZGD erified that glmU increases HA production. glmU encodes a UDP-N-acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase.  it has 495 amino aicd   (also know as : GcaD in megaterium)
168E-glmU produces precipitates formed by the reaction of HA with CTAB, OD400:2.313. HA’s concentration is 447.2mg/L.
