Function Catalyzes the conversion of GlcNAc-6-P into GlcNAc-1-P during the synthesis of uridine diphosphate/UDP-GlcNAc, a sugar nucleotide critical to multiple glycosylation pathways including protein N- and O-glycosylation. {ECO:0000303|PubMed:24589341, ECO:0000303|PubMed:24698316, ECO:0000303|PubMed:24931394}.
Tissue Specificity Found in many tissues except lung. Relatively high expression in pancreas, heart, liver, and placenta, and relatively low expression in brain, skeletal muscle and kidney. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10721701}.
