In enzymology an UDP-N-acetylglucosamine—dolichyl-phosphate N-acetylglucosaminephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.15) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionUDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine + dolichyl phosphate UMP + N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyl-diphosphodolicholThus the two substrates of this enzyme are UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine and dolichyl phosphate whereas its two products are UMP and N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyl-diphosphodolichol.This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing groups transferases for other substituted phosphate groups.
