Type: | Family | Name: | TDP-D-fucosamine acetyltransferase WecD |
Description: | This entry represents the WecD protein (also known as RffC), a TDP-fucosamine acetyltransferase involved in Enterobacterial common antigen (ECA) synthesis []. ECA is a family-specific surface antigen (polysaccharide) shared by all members of the Enterobacteriaceae and is restricted to this family []. ECA has been linked to the resistance of Salmonella enterica to bile salts, however, its function is unclear []. WecD is also a member of the GNAT (the GCN5-relatedN-acetyltransferase) family []. | Short Name: | AcTrfase_WecD |
