LMP007701

Record overview

LMPD IDLMP007701
Gene ID945450
SpeciesEscherecia coli (E. coli)
Gene Nameundecaprenyl pyrophosphate phosphatase
Gene SymBolybjG
SynonymsECK0831; JW5112; bcrC
SummaryThe ybjG gene is not essential, but UppP activity is essential to synthesize undecaprenyl phosphate, a C55 lipid carrier for cell wall synthesis, so a ybjG pgpB bacA triple mutant is lethal; overexpression, but not wildtype levels, of the LpxT(YeiU) UppP activity rescues the triple mutant (El Ghachi, 2005). [More information is available at EcoGene: EG13676]. YbjG is similar to a bacitracin resistance protein BcrC of Bacillus licheniformis. [More information is available at EcoCyc: G6439].
