procollagen glucosyltransferase
pro·col·la·gen glu·co·syl·trans·fer·ase (pro-kolґə-jən gloo″ko-səl-transґfər-ās) [EC 2.4.1.66] an enzyme of the transferase class that catalyzes the attachment of glucose to some of the galactose-containing hydroxylysine residues during the synthesis of collagen. The donor of the glucose moiety is UDPglucose, and the enzyme is specific for collagen that is not yet in triple helical form.
