Notes

[back to top]


BacA(UppP) encodes 75% of the cell's UppP activity. The bacA gene is not essential, but UppP activity is essential to synthesize undecaprenyl phosphate, a C55 lipid carrier for cell wall synthesis, so a ybjG pgpB bacA triple mutant is lethal; overexpression, but not wildtype levels, of the LpxT(YeiU) UppP activity rescues the triple mutant (El Ghachi, 2005). BacA does not encode undecaprenol phosphokinase activity as previously hypothesized. ybjG and bacA are not involved in lipid A modification (Touze, 2008).[4]
