Abstract
A process for producing uridine diphosphate-N-acetylglucosamine (UDPAG) from uridylic acid (UMP) and N-acetylglucosamine by use of microorganism cells, characterized by adding N-acetylglucosamine kinase thereto. According to the present invention, UDPAG can be efficiently produced even when N-acetylglucosamine is used as a substrate.
