Protein Domain : IPR003856

Type:  Domain Name:  Lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis
Description:  A number of related proteins are involved in the synthesis of lipopolysaccharide, O-antigen polysaccharide, capsule polysaccharide and exopolysaccharides. Chain length determinant protein (or wzz protein) is involved in lipopolysaccharide (lps) biosynthesis, conferring a modal distribution of chain length on the O-antigen component of lps []. It gives rise to a reduced number of short chain molecules and increases in numbers of longer molecules, with a modal value of 20. The MPA/MPA2 proteins function in CPS and EPS polymerisation and export []. Short Name:  LipoPS_biosynth
