LpxC, Recombinant, E. coli, aa1-305, His-Tag (UDP-3-O-acyl-N-acetylglucosamine Deacetylase)
Description
Purity ~90% (SDS-PAGE). The key enzyme in the biosynthesis of lipid A, a phosphorylated glycolipid that anchors the lipopolysaccharide to the outer membrane of the cell. Degraded by FtsH; when the activity of FtsH is reduced too much lipid A and not enough phospholipids are made (both pathways use the same precursor), which is lethal. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of UDP-3-O-myristoyl-N-acetylglucosamine to form UDP-3-O-myristoylglucosamine and acetate, the committed step in lipid A biosynthesis. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-305 from E. coli lpxC, fused to His-Tag at N-terminal expressed in E. coli. Molecular Weight: ~38.0kD AA
