aftB

Gene
aftB
Protein
Terminal beta-(1->2)-arabinofuranosyltransferase
Organism
Corynebacterium glutamicum (strain ATCC 13032 / DSM 20300 / JCM 1318 / LMG 3730 / NCIMB 10025)
Length
686 amino acids
Function
Involved in the biosynthesis of the arabinogalactan (AG) region of the mycolylarabinogalactan-peptidoglycan (mAGP) complex, an essential component of the cell wall. Catalyzes the transfer of arabinofuranosyl (Araf) residues from the sugar donor decaprenyl-phospho-arabinose (DPA) to the arabinan domain to form terminal beta-(1->2)-linked Araf residues, which marks the end point for AG arabinan biosynthesis before decoration with mycolic acids.
Similarity
Belongs to the AftB family.
Mass
75.84 kDa
