Glucosylglycerate synthase (EC 2.4.1.268, Ggs (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name ADP-glucose:D-glycerate 2-alpha-D-glucosyltransferase.[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- ADP-glucose + D-glycerate 2-O-(alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-glycerate + ADP
Persephonella marina possesses two enzymatic systems for the synthesis of glucosylglycerate.
