UDP-3-O-((R)-3-hydroxymyristoyl)-N-acetylglucosamine + H2O | Aquifex aeolicus | LpxC catalyzes the first committed step in the biosynthesis of lipid A, the hydrophobic anchor of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) that constitutes the outermost monolayer of Gram-negative bacteria. As LpxC is crucial for the survival of Gram-negative organisms and has no sequence homology to known mammalian deacetylases or amidases | UDP-3-O-((R)-3-hydroxymyristoyl)-D-glucosamine + acetate | - |
