lptC

Comments [?]

Function	Involved in the assembly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Required for the translocation of LPS from the inner membrane to the outer membrane. Facilitates the transfer of LPS from the inner membrane to the periplasmic protein LptA. Could be a docking site for LptA.
Subunit	Component of the lipopolysaccharide transport and assembly complex. Interacts with LptA and the LptBFG transporter complex.
Subcellular location	Cell inner membrane; Single-pass membrane protein.
Similarity	Belongs to the LptC family.
