Comments
Comment typeDescription
CautionLacks the conserved Asp residue in position 252 essential for pectinase activity. Likewise, most of the residues involved in substrate binding are not conserved. Was originally (PubMed:15808744) thought to have palmitoyl-CoA thioesterase activity, but PubMed:19452549 were unable to detect any pectinase or palmitoyl-CoA thioesterase activity. Its enzyme activity is therefore unsure. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:15808744}.
FunctionPutative thioesterase. Does not bind pectin, and has no pectinesterase activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15808744, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19452549}.
Sequence CautionSequence=U39938; Type=Frameshift; Positions=37; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
SimilarityBelongs to the pectinesterase family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationCell outer membrane {ECO:0000305}; Lipid- anchor {ECO:0000305}.
