UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-undecaprenyl-phosphate N-acetylglucosaminephosphotransferase activity

Known as: UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:undecaprenyl-phosphate GlcNAc-1-phosphate transferase activity, GlcNAc-P-P-Und synthase activity, UDP-GIcNAc:undecaprenyl phosphate N-acetylglucosaminyl 1-P transferase activity 
Catalysis of the reaction: UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine + ditrans,octacis-undecaprenyl phosphate = UMP + N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosaminyldiphospho… (More)
