Protein
Putative hydrolase EbsB
Organism
Enterococcus faecalis (strain ATCC 700802 / V583)
Function
Seems to play some role in the cell surface expression of a chromosomally encoded receptor, named enterococcal binding substance (EBS), that mediates mating aggregate formation. Might interfere with the synthesis or assembly of EBS and function as a cell wall hydrolase.
Similarity
Belongs to the RNase H family. EbsB subfamily.
