Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans
Function
Required for full activity and modification of the LtxA leukotoxin. Involved in fatty acid modification of the protoxin at two internal lysine residues, thereby converting it to the active toxin.
Similarity
Belongs to the RTX toxin acyltransferase family.
