Two conserved histidine residues are critical to the function of the TagF-like family of enzymes.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 4 Nov 2005

Schertzer Jeffrey W, Bhavsar Amit P, Brown Eric D

Abstract excerpt

The TagF protein from Bacillus subtilis 168 is the poly(glycerol phosphate) polymerase responsible for the synthesis of wall teichoic acid and is the prototype member of a poorly understood family of similar teichoic acid synthetic enzymes. Here we describe in vitro and in vivo characterization of TagF, which localizes the active site to the carboxyl terminus of the protein and identifies residues that are...
