Gene
BQ2027_MB3818
Protein
Arabinogalactan biosynthesis recruiting protein Mb3818
Organism
Mycobacterium bovis (strain ATCC BAA-935 / AF2122/97)
Length
121 amino acids
Function
Required for arabinosylation of arabinogalactan (AG), an essential component of the mycobacterial cell wall. Probably acts as an anchor protein recruiting AftA, the first arabinosyl transferase involved in AG biosynthesis.
