gene lpxB, recombinant overexpression of LpxB in Escherichia coli resulting in the accumulation of aberrant tubular membranes of a uniform diameter along the inner surface of the bacterial inner membrane, suggesting that the accumulation of the lipid product of the LpxB reaction, 2',3'-diacylglucosamine-(beta,1'-6)-2,3-diacylglucosamine-1-phosphate (DSMP), is toxic to cells | Chlamydia trachomatis |
