General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction in three enzyme mutant strains, no phosphoethanolamine residues are included in the lipid A region of the lipopolysacchride and there is no further phosphorylation of lipid A beyond one additional phosphate species Neisseria meningitidis
physiological function the enzyme is responsible for the transfer of phosphoethanolamine residues to the lipid A in several Neisseria meningitidis strains. In all meningococcal strains examined, each lipid A species contains the basal diphosphorylated species, wherein a phosphate group is attached to each glucosamine residue. Also elaborated within the population of lipopolysacchride molecules are a variety of phosphoforms that contain either an additional phosphate residue, an additional phosphoethanolamine residue, additional phosphate and phosphoethanolamine residues, or an additional phosphate and two phosphoethanolamine residues in the lipid A, mass spectroscopic analyses, overview Neisseria meningitidis
