UDP-3-O-acyl-glucosamine N-acyltransferase (LpxD): The enzyme catalyzes the transfer of 3-hydroxymyristic acid or 3-hydroxy-arachidic acid, depending on the organism, from the acyl carrier protein (ACP) to UDP-3-O-acyl-glucosamine to produce UDP-2,3-diacyl-GlcNAc. This constitutes the third step in the lipid A biosynthetic pathway in Gram-negative bacteria. LpxD is a homotrimer, with each subunit consisting of a novel combination of an N-terminal uridine-binding domain, a core lipid-binding left-handed parallel beta helix (LbH) domain, and a C-terminal alpha-helical extension. The LbH domain contains 9 turns, each containing three imperfect tandem repeats of a hexapeptide repeat motif (X-[STAV]-X-[LIV]-[GAED]-X).
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.
Tips:  If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position. The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs. Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below. Range on the Protein: Protein ID Protein Position Domain Position:
