Protein Domain : IPR012750

Type:  Family Name:  Undecaprenyl-phosphate alpha-N-acetylglucosaminyl 1-phosphatetransferase
Description:  Members of this family are the WecA enzymes of enterobacterial common antigen (ECA) biosynthesis, undecaprenyl-phosphate alpha-N-acetylglucosaminyl 1-phosphatetransferase. This family represents one narrow clade, and closely related sequences outside this clade may represent enzymes that catalyse the same specific reaction, but in the context of different pathways. A His-rich motif in a cytosolic loop of this integral membrane protein, shown to be critical to enzymatic activity for WecA [] is variously present or absent in the clade that includes Bacillus subtilisTagO teichoic acid biosynthesis enzyme, which may catalyse the same reaction as WecA. Short Name:  ECA_WecA-rel
