In enzymology, a chitobiosyldiphosphodolichol beta-mannosyltransferase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
GDP-mannose + chitobiosyldiphosphodolichol
\rightleftharpoons
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are GDP-mannose and chitobiosyldiphosphodolichol, whereas its two products are GDP and beta-1,4-D-mannosylchitobiosyldiphosphodolichol.
This enzyme belongs to the family of glycosyltransferases, specifically the hexosyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is GDP-mannose:chitobiosyldiphosphodolichol beta-D-mannosyltransferase. Other names in common use include guanosine diphosphomannose-dolichol diphosphochitobiose, mannosyltransferase, and GDP-mannose-dolichol diphosphochitobiose mannosyltransferase. This enzyme participates in n-glycan biosynthesis and glycan structures - biosynthesis 1.
