Protein
Hexuronic acid methyltransferase AglP
Organism
Haloferax volcanii (strain ATCC 29605 / DSM 3757 / JCM 8879 / NBRC 14742 / NCIMB 2012 / VKM B-1768 / DS2)
Function
Involved in the assembly of a N-linked pentasaccharide that decorates the S-layer glycoprotein and flagellins. S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferase that modifies the hexuronic acid found at position 4 of the pentasaccharide.
Similarity
Belongs to the FkbM methyltransferase family.
