Comments [?]

case <OC:Bacteria>

Function

Catalyzes the hydrolysis of UDP-3-O-myristoyl-N-acetylglucosamine to form UDP-3-O-myristoylglucosamine and acetate, the committed step in lipid A biosynthesis.

end case

case <OG:Chloroplast>

Function

Catalyzes the hydrolysis of UDP-3-O-myristoyl-N-acetylglucosamine to form UDP-3-O-myristoylglucosamine and acetate. Involved in the biosynthesis of lipid A, a phosphorylated glycolipid that in bacteria anchors the lipopolysaccharide to the outer membrane of the cell. The target for the lipopolysaccharides produced in the chloroplast could either be the cell envelope of the eukaryote or the plastid membrane.

end case

Catalytic activity	RHEA:67816: a UDP-3-O-[(3R)-3-hydroxyacyl]-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine + H2O = a UDP-3-O-[(3R)-3-hydroxyacyl]-alpha-D-glucosamine + acetate EC 3.5.1.108
Cofactor	Zn(2+)
Pathway	Glycolipid biosynthesis; lipid IV(A) biosynthesis; lipid IV(A) from (3R)-3-hydroxytetradecanoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] and UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine: step 2/6.

case <OG:Chloroplast>

Subcellular location

Plastid, chloroplast.

end case

Similarity

Belongs to the LpxC family.
