Ribitol 5-phosphate transferase FKRP

UniProtKB accession:  Q9H9S5

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Catalyzes the transfer of a ribitol 5-phosphate from CDP-L-ribitol to the ribitol 5-phosphate previously attached by FKTN/fukutin to the phosphorylated O-mannosyl trisaccharide (N-acetylgalactosamine-beta-3-N-acetylglucosamine-beta-4-(phosphate-6-)mannose), a carbohydrate structure present in alpha-dystroglycan (DAG1) (PubMed:26923585, PubMed:27194101, PubMed:29477842, PubMed:31949166). This constitutes the second step in the formation of the ribose 5-phosphate tandem repeat which links the phosphorylated O-mannosyl trisaccharide to the ligand binding moiety composed of repeats of 3-xylosyl-alpha-1,3-glucuronic acid-beta-1 (PubMed:25279699, PubMed:26923585, PubMed:27194101, PubMed:29477842, PubMed:31949166).
