Background
This gene encodes the first and rate-limiting enzyme of the hexosamine pathway and controls the flux of glucose into the hexosamine pathway. The product of this gene catalyzes the formation of glucosamine 6-phosphate. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008],
Function
catalytic activity:L-glutamine + D-fructose 6-phosphate = L-glutamate + D-glucosamine 6-phosphate.,function:Controls the flux of glucose into the hexosamine pathway. Most likely involved in regulating the availability of precursors for N- and O-linked glycosylation of proteins.,pathway:Nucleotide-sugar biosynthesis; UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine biosynthesis; D-glucosamine 6-phosphate from D-fructose 6-phosphate: step 1/1.,similarity:Contains 1 glutamine amidotransferase type-2 domain.,similarity:Contains 2 SIS domains.,subunit:Homotetramer .,tissue specificity:Isoform 1 is predominantly expressed in skeletal muscle. Not expressed in brain. Seems to be selectively expressed in striated muscle.,
