| Comments | The bifunctional enzyme from Escherichia coli transfers two 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate residues to lipid IVA (cf. EC 2.4.99.13 [(KDO)-lipid IVA 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic acid transferase]) [1]. The monofunctional enzymes from Aquifex aeolicus and Haemophilus influenzae catalyse the transfer of a single 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate residue from CMP-3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate to lipid IVA [2,3]. The enzymes from Chlamydia transfer three or more 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate residues and generate genus-specific epitopes [4]. |
