Type: | Family | Name: | Glucan biosynthesis protein G |
Description: | Membrane-derived oligosaccharides (MDO) are members of a family of glucans found in the periplasmic space of Gram-negative bacteria. MdoG has been shown to be necessary for the synthesis of MDO [], but its exact function is not known yet. This entry contains proteins that are involved in the biosynthesis of osmoregulated periplasmic glucans (OPGs). They belong to the opgD/opgG family. | Short Name: | MdoG_OpgG |
