Summary
The N-terminus (22-273) is homologous to ABC-type periplasmic binding proteins; the C-terminus (294-387) encodes the MltF function. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG11373]. MltF is a membrane-bound lytic transglycosylase responsible for catalyzing the release of 1,6-anhydromuropeptides from peptidoglycan . [More information is available at EcoCyc: EG11373].
