LITERATURE
physiological function
-
chlamydial Kdo transferases can replace in Escherichia coli K-12 the host's KDO transferase and retain the product specificities described in their natural background. WaaA from Chlamydia psittaci transfers predominantly four KDO residues to lipid A, forming a branched tetrasaccharide with the structure alpha-KDO-(2,8)-[alpha-KDO-(2,4)-alpha-KDO-(2,4)-alpha-KDO]
