UniProt functional annotation for O34918



	UniProt functional annotation for O34918

UniProt code: O34918.

Organism: Bacillus subtilis (strain 168).

Taxonomy: Bacteria; Firmicutes; Bacilli; Bacillales; Bacillaceae; Bacillus.

Function: May promote colonization of plant roots. May cause loosening and extension of plant cell walls by disrupting non-covalent bonding between cellulose microfibrils and matrix glucans. Has very low expansin activity (in vitro). No enzymatic activity has been found. Binds to peptidoglycan and to plant cell walls. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18971341}.

Subcellular location: Secreted, cell wall {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18971341}.
