Summary
Involved in the modification of lipid A phosphates with aminoarabinose that is required for polymyxin B and cationic antimicrobial peptide resistance. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG14090]. ArnC is an undecaprenyl transferase that acts in a pathway which modifies lipid A phosphates with 4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose (L-Ara4N), causing increased resistance to polymyxin . [More information is available at EcoCyc: G7167].

Comments

Comment Type Description
Catalytic Activity UDP-4-deoxy-4-formamido-beta-L-arabinose + ditrans,octacis-undecaprenyl phosphate = UDP + 4-deoxy-4- formamido-alpha-L-arabinose ditrans,octacis-undecaprenyl phosphate. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15695810}.
Function Catalyzes the transfer of 4-deoxy-4-formamido-L- arabinose from UDP to undecaprenyl phosphate. The modified arabinose is attached to lipid A and is required for resistance to polymyxin and cationic antimicrobial peptides. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11706007}.
Induction Induced by BasR. {ECO:0000250}.
Pathway Bacterial outer membrane biogenesis; lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17928292}.
Pathway Glycolipid biosynthesis; 4-amino-4-deoxy-alpha-L- arabinose undecaprenyl phosphate biosynthesis; 4-amino-4-deoxy- alpha-L-arabinose undecaprenyl phosphate from UDP-4-deoxy-4- formamido-beta-L-arabinose and undecaprenyl phosphate: step 1/2. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17928292}.
Similarity Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 2 family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular Location Cell inner membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
