protein sorting system archaetidylserine decarboxylase Members of this family, including founding member HVO_0146 from Haloferax volcanii, are archaeal homologs of bacterial phosphatidylserine decarboxylases (PssD). HVO_0146, and the PssA homolog HVO_1143, were shown be required for archaeosortase A (ArtA)-mediated removal of the PGF-CTERM protein-sorting signal and replacement with a large, prenyl-derived, C-terminal anchoring lipid moiety that is proposed to be archaetidylethanolamine.
