>gnl|CDD|162561 TIGR01853, lipid_A_lpxD, UDP-3-O-[3-hydroxymyristoyl] glucosamine N-acyltransferase. This model describes LpxD, an enzyme for the biosynthesis of lipid A, a component oflipopolysaccharide (LPS) in the outer membrane outer leaflet of most Gram-negative bacteria. Some differences are found between lipid A of different species. This protein represents the third step from UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine. The group added at this step generally is 14:0(3-OH) (myristate) but may vary; in Aquifex it appears to be 16:0(3-OH) (palmitate). Length = 324
Score = 63.5 bits (155), Expect = 1e-10
Identities = 46/209 (22%), Positives = 65/209 (31%), Gaps = 53/209 (25%)
