structure to 2.06 A resolution. The supposed ruler residues for hydrocarbon length, L171 in one monomer and H168 in the adjacent monomer in a functional trimer of LpxA, are located just 3.8 A apart that renders not enough space for binding of 3-OH-laurate or longer acyl chains | Francisella tularensis subsp. novicida |

General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
physiological function | Francisella novicida LpxA functionally complements an Escherichia coli LpxA knockout mutant and efficiently transfers 3-OH-myristoylate as well as 3-OH-palmitate in Echerichia coli. The acyl chain length of lipid A is determined by several factors including acyl chain selectivity of LpxA and downstream enzymes, as well as the composition of the acyl-ACP pool in vivo | Francisella tularensis subsp. novicida |
