In enzymology a diphosphate-glycerol phosphotransferase (EC 2.7.1.79) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactiondiphosphate + glycerol phosphate + glycerol 1-phosphateThus the two substrates of this enzyme are diphosphate and glycerol whereas its two products are phosphate and glycerol 1-phosphate.This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing groups (phosphotransferases) with an alcohol group as acceptor.
