the main function of Kdo transferase is to provide the right substrates for the acyltransferases LpxL and LpxM, resulting in the synthesis of penta- and hexaacylated lipid A, which is optimal for the MsbA flippase
construction of a kdtA::kan insertion mutation, using a gene replacement method. Growth of this strain is absolutely dependent upon the presence of a functional copy of the kdtA gene (or the related gseA gene) carried on a plasmid
kdtA deletion mutants are viable when lpxL and lpxM (the lauroyl- or the myristoyltransferase of lipid A biosynthesis) are overexpressed. Deletion of kdtA in strains overexpressing LpxM causes accumulation of pentaacylated lipid A with a secondary myristate moiety. None of the strains lacking kdtA grow in the presence of bile salts at any temperature or on nutrient broth at 42°C
waaA (monofunctional Kdo transferase) of Haemophilus influenzae can not complement a knockout mutation in the corresponding gene of an Re-type Escherichia coli strain (encoding a bifunctional enzyme that transfers two 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate residues to the lipid A precursor). However, complementation is possible by coexpressing the recombinant waaA together with the LPS-specific KDO kinase gene (kdkA) of Haemophilus influenzae DSM11121 or I69, respectively
The gene coding for 3-deoxy-manno-octulosonic acid transferase and the rfaQ gene are transcribed from divergently arranged promoters in Escherichia coli
3-Deoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid (Kdo) transferase (WaaA) and kdo kinase (KdkA) of Haemophilus influenzae are both required to complement a waaA knockout mutation of Escherichia coli
