In

enzymology, a dolichol kinase (EC 2.7.1.108) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

CTP + dolichol CDP + dolichyl phosphate

Thus, the two

dolichyl phosphate
.

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, to be specific, those transferring phosphorus-containing groups (phosphotransferases) with an alcohol group as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is CTP:dolichol O-phosphotransferase. This enzyme is also called dolichol phosphokinase. This enzyme participates in N-glycan biosynthesis.

In humans dolichol kinase is encoded by the DOLK gene.[5][6][7]

Function

Dolichyl monophosphate is an essential glycosyl carrier lipid for C- and O-mannosylation and N-glycosylation of proteins and for biosynthesis of glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchors in endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Dolichol kinase catalyzes CTP-mediated phosphorylation of dolichol, the terminal step in de novo dolichyl monophosphate biosynthesis.[8]

Clinical significance

Mutations in DOLK cause a subtype of the

congenital disorders of glycosylation, DOLK-CDG (CDG-Im).[9]
