General protein information

Names
colanic acid biosynthesis acetyltransferase WcaB
YP_853167.1
  • acetyltransferase believed to catalyze the addition of the acetyl group that is attached through an O linkage to the first fucosyl residue of the colanic acid repetitive unit (E unit); wcaB is induced in sessile bacteria and by osmotic shock, and repressed when grown in rich medium
