More | according to light scattering data, LptA oligomerizes in a concentration-dependent manner. LptA is an average of a trimer in solution, and a considerably higher order oligomerization state (25mers) is predicted at a protein concentration of 0.1 mM | Escherichia coli |

General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
evolution | LptA is a member of the lipopolysaccharide transport protein (Lpt) family | Escherichia coli |
malfunction | a mutant LptA protein unable to form oligomers has an altered affinity for LPS | Escherichia coli |
physiological function | LptA functions to transport lipopolysaccharide (LPS) through the periplasm to the outer leaflet of the outer membrane after ABC transporter MsbA flips LPS across the inner membrane. It is hypothesized that LPS binds to LptA to cross the periplasm and that the acyl chains of LPS bind to the central pocket of LptA | Escherichia coli |
