| UniProt functional annotation for P0CD76 | |||
| UniProt code: P0CD76. |
| Organism: | Chlamydia trachomatis (strain D/UW-3/Cx). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Chlamydiae; Chlamydiales; Chlamydiaceae; Chlamydia/Chlamydophila group; Chlamydia. | |
| Function: | Catalyzes the N-acylation of UDP-3-O-myristoylglucosamine using 3-hydroxyarachidoyl-ACP as the acyl donor. Is involved in the biosynthesis of lipid A, a phosphorylated glycolipid that anchors the lipopolysaccharide to the outer membrane of the cell (Probable). {ECO:0000305|PubMed:10358025}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=a (3R)-hydroxyacyl-[ACP] + a UDP-3-O-acyl-alpha-D-glucosamine = a UDP-2-N,3-O-bis((3R)-3-hydroxyacyl)-alpha-D-glucosamine + H(+) + holo-[ACP]; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:53836, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:9685, Rhea:RHEA- COMP:9945, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:64479, ChEBI:CHEBI:78827, ChEBI:CHEBI:137740, ChEBI:CHEBI:137748; | |
| Pathway: | Bacterial outer membrane biogenesis; LPS lipid A biosynthesis. | |
| Subunit: | Homotrimer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17360522}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the transferase hexapeptide repeat family. LpxD subfamily. {ECO:0000305}. | |
