>TIGR01852 lipid_A_lpxA acyl-[acyl-carrier-protein]--UDP-N-acetylglucosamine O-acyltransferase; InterPro: IPR010137 This entry describes LpxA, an enzyme for the biosynthesis of lipid A, a component of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in the outer membrane outer leaflet of most Gram-negative bacteria. Some differences are found between lipid A of different species, but this protein represents the first step (from UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine) and appears to be conserved in function. Proteins from this family contain many copies of the bacterial transferase hexapeptide repeat.; GO: 0008780 acyl-[acyl-carrier-protein]-UDP-N-acetylglucosamine O-acyltransferase activity, 0008610 lipid biosynthetic process.
