Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are GTP and alpha-D-mannose 1-phosphate, whereas its two products are diphosphate and GDP-mannose.

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing nucleotide groups (nucleotidyltransferases). The systematic name of this enzyme class is GTP:alpha-D-mannose-1-phosphate guanylyltransferase. Other names in common use include GTP-mannose-1-phosphate guanylyltransferase, PIM-GMP (phosphomannose isomerase-guanosine 5'-diphospho-D-mannose, pyrophosphorylase), GDP-mannose pyrophosphorylase, guanosine 5'-diphospho-D-mannose pyrophosphorylase, guanosine diphosphomannose pyrophosphorylase, guanosine triphosphate-mannose 1-phosphate guanylyltransferase, and mannose 1-phosphate guanylyltransferase (guanosine triphosphate). This enzyme participates in fructose and mannose metabolism.

Structural studies

As of late 2007, only one structure has been solved for this class of enzymes, with the PDB accession code 2CU2.

gollark: That is currently my top idea. But it has annoying tradeoffs.
gollark: And phones or something similar will probably replace basically all other personal computing hardware soon™, so aaaaaa.
gollark: I'm picking a phone to replace my mysteriously failed one, but apparently in my absence the phone market became even more bad.
gollark: It's just a solid aluminium sphere with no visible interfaces.
gollark: Can't wait for the next fully wireless iPhone.
