Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information mutations in nagA result in accumulation of millimolar of N-acetylglucosamine, presumably by preventing peptidoglycan recycling. Mutations in the genes encoding the key enzymes upstream of nagA in the recycling pathway (amG, nagZ, nagK, murQ, and anmK), which are expected to interrupt the recycling process, reduce but do not eliminate accumulation of N-acetyl-6-phosphate Escherichia coli
