Structure of the polyisoprenyl-phosphate glycosyltransferase GtrB and insights into the mechanism of catalysis

Polyisoprenyl-glycosyltransferases (PI-GTs) catalyse the addition of sugar to lipid carriers, which is the first step in the production of sugar donors for glycosylation. Here Ardiccioni et al.present the structure of a bacterial PI-GT and propose a mechanistic basis for sugar transfer.
