WbqC


Accession number: PF08889
WbqC-like protein family

This family of proteins are functionally uncharacterised. However it is found in an O-antigen gene cluster in E. coli [1] and other bacteria [2] suggesting a role in O-antigen production. Feng et al. suggest that wbnG may code for a glycine transferase [2].
