== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/GLGE_MYCTO GLGE_MYCTO] Essential maltosyltransferase that uses maltose 1-phosphate (M1P) as the sugar donor to elongate linear or branched alpha-(1->4)-glucans. Maltooligosaccharides with a degree of polymerization (DP) superior or equal to 4 are efficient acceptors, with DP5 being optimal in the GlgE-catalyzed polymerization with M1P. Is specific for the alpha-anomer of M1P as substrate, since the beta-anomer of M1P gives no activity. Exhibits an alpha-retaining catalytic mechanism. Is also able to catalyze the reverse reaction in vitro, releasing M1P from glycogen in the presence of inorganic phosphate. Also catalyzes disproportionation reactions through maltosyl transfer between maltooligosaccharides. Is involved in a branched alpha-glucan biosynthetic pathway from trehalose, together with TreS, Mak and GlgB (By similarity).

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
GlgE is a bacterial maltosyltransferase that catalyzes the elongation of a cytosolic, branched alpha-glucan. In Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb), inactivation of GlgE (Mtb GlgE) results in the rapid death of the organism due to a toxic accumulation of the maltosyl donor, maltose-1-phosphate (M1P), suggesting that GlgE is an intriguing target for inhibitor design. In this study, the crystal structures of the Mtb GlgE in a binary complex with maltose and a ternary complex with maltose and a maltosyl-acceptor molecule, maltohexaose, were solved to 3.3 A and 4.0 A, respectively. The maltohexaose structure reveals a dominant site for alpha-glucan binding. To obtain more detailed interactions between first generation, non-covalent inhibitors and GlgE, a variant Streptomyces coelicolor GlgEI (Sco GlgEI-V279S) was made to better emulate the Mtb GlgE M1P binding site. The structure of Sco GlgEI-V279S complexed with alpha-maltose-C-phosphonate (MCP), a non-hydrolyzable substrate analogue, was solved to 1.9 A resolution, and the structure of Sco GlgEI-V279S complexed with 2,5-dideoxy-3-O-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-2,5-imino-D-mannitol (DDGIM), an oxocarbenium mimic, was solved to 2.5 A resolution. These structures detail important interactions that contribute to the inhibitory activity of these compounds, and provide information on future designs that may be exploited to improve upon these first generation GlgE inhibitors.
