Cj1121c, a Novel UDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-GlcNAc C-4 Aminotransferase Essential for Protein Glycosylation and Virulence in Campylobacter jejuni

12 May 2006

Abstract excerpt

Campylobacter jejuni produces glycoproteins that are essential for virulence. These glycoproteins carry diacetamidobacillosamine (DAB), a sugar that is not found in humans. Hence, the enzymes responsible for DAB synthesis represent potential therapeutic targets. We describe the biochemical characterization of Cj1121c, a putative aminotransferase encoded by the general protein glycosylation locus, to assess its...
