NTP_transferase_like_1 is a member of the nucleotidyl transferase family.
This is a subfamily of nucleotidyl transferases. Nucleotidyl transferases transfer nucleotides onto phosphosugars. The activated sugars are precursors for synthesis of lipopolysaccharide, glycolipids and polysaccharides. Other subfamilies of nucleotidyl transferases include Alpha-D-Glucose-1-Phosphate Cytidylyltransferase, Mannose-1-phosphate guanyltransferase, and Glucose-1-phosphate thymidylyltransferase.
