Function
Generates ditrans,octacis-undecaprenyl pyrophosphate (UPP) from isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) and farnesyl diphosphate (FPP). UPP is the precursor of glycosyl carrier lipid in the biosynthesis of bacterial cell wall polysaccharide components such as peptidoglycan and lipopolysaccharide.
KEGG Pathway
Peptidoglycan biosynthesis (ecj00550 )
Terpenoid backbone biosynthesis (ecj00900 )
Biosynthesis of secondary metabolites (ecj01110 )
BioCyc Pathway
MetaCyc:UPPSYN-MON
EcoCyc:UPPSYN-MON
