Function | Plays a critical role in the incorporation of lipoproteins in the outer membrane after they are released by the LolA protein. |
Subunit | Monomer. |
Subcellular location | Cell outer membrane; Lipid-anchor. |
Similarity | Belongs to the LolB family. |
Size range | 180-218 amino acids |

Comments | The epsilon proteobacteria possess lolA but apparently they do not have lolB. Further characterization is needed to assess to which protein the outer membrane lipoproteins are translocated (the same applies to the animal symbionts Candidatus Blochmannia floridanus and Wigglesworthia glossinidia brevipalpis). |
