In [[enzymology]], an '''alpha-1,4-glucan-protein synthase (ADP-forming)''' ({{EC number|2.4.1.113}}) is an [[enzyme]] that [[catalysis|catalyzes]] the [[chemical reaction]]
:ADP-glucose + protein <math>\rightleftharpoons</math> ADP + alpha-D-glucosyl-protein
Thus, the two [[substrate (biochemistry)|substrates]] of this enzyme are [[ADP-glucose]] and [[protein]], whereas its two [[product (chemistry)|products]] are [[adenosine diphosphate|ADP]] and [[alpha-D-glucosyl-protein]].
This enzyme belongs to the family of [[glycosyltransferase]]s, specifically the hexosyltransferases.  The [[List of enzymes|systematic name]] of this enzyme class is '''ADP-glucose:protein 4-alpha-D-glucosyltransferase'''. Other names in common use include '''ADP-glucose:protein glucosyltransferase''', and '''adenosine diphosphoglucose-protein glucosyltransferase'''.
