In enzymology an UDP-N-acetylglucosamine—lysosomal-enzyme N-acetylglucosaminephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.17) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionUDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine + lysosomal-enzyme D-mannose UMP + lysosomal-enzyme N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyl-phospho-D-mannoseThus the two substrates of this enzyme are UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine and lysosomal-enzyme D-mannose whereas its two products are UMP and lysosomal-enzyme N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyl-phospho-D-mannose.This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing groups transferases for other substituted phosphate groups.
