Function of Escherichia coli MsbA, an essential ABC family transporter, in lipid A and phospholipid biosynthesis.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 15 May 1998

Zhou Z, White K A, Polissi A, Georgopoulos C, Raetz C R

Abstract excerpt

The Escherichia coli msbA gene, first identified as a multicopy suppressor of htrB mutations, has been proposed to transport nascent core-lipid A molecules across the inner membrane (Polissi, A., and Georgopoulos, C. (1996) Mol. Microbiol. 20, 1221-1233). msbA is an essential E. coli gene with high sequence similarity to mammalian Mdr proteins and certain types of bacterial ABC transporters. htrB is required for...
