== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/UPPS_ECOLI UPPS_ECOLI] Generates ditrans,octacis-undecaprenyl pyrophosphate (UPP) from isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) and farnesyl diphosphate (FPP). UPP is the precursor of glycosyl carrier lipid in the biosynthesis of bacterial cell wall polysaccharide components such as peptidoglycan and lipopolysaccharide.<ref>PMID:12756244</ref>
