The latter compound UDP-glucose interacts with (heptosyl)2-Kdo2-lipid A resulting in UDP, hydrogen ion and glucosyl-(heptosyl)2-Kdo2-lipid A. Glucosyl-(heptosyl)2-Kdo2-lipid A (Escherichia coli) is phosphorylated through an ATP-mediated lipopolysaccharide core heptose (I) kinase resulting in ADP, hydrogen ion and glucosyl-(heptosyl)2-Kdo2-lipid A-phosphate. The latter compound interacts with ADP-L-glycero-beta-D-manno-heptose through a lipopolysaccharide core heptosyl transferase III resulting in ADP, hydrogen ion, and glucosyl-(heptosyl)3-Kdo2-lipid A-phosphate. The latter compound is phosphorylated through an ATP-driven lipopolysaccharide core heptose (II) kinase resulting in ADP, hydrogen ion and glucosyl-(heptosyl)3-Kdo2-lipid A-bisphosphate. The latter compound interacts with UDP-alpha-D-galactose through a UDP-D-galactose:(glucosyl)lipopolysaccharide-1,6-D-galactosyltransferase resulting in a UDP, a hydrogen ion and a galactosyl-glucosyl-(heptosyl)3-Kdo2-lipid A-bisphosphate. The latter compound interacts with UDP-glucose through a (glucosyl)LPS α-1,3-glucosyltransferase resulting in a hydrogen ion, a UDP and galactosyl-(glucosyl)2-(heptosyl)3-Kdo2-lipid A-bisphosphate. This compound then interacts with UDP-glucose through a UDP-glucose:(glucosyl)LPS α-1,2-glucosyltransferase resulting in UDP, a hydrogen ion and galactosyl-(glucosyl)3-(heptosyl)3-Kdo2-lipid A-bisphosphate. This compound then interacts with ADP-L-glycero-beta-D-manno-heptose through a lipopolysaccharide core biosynthesis; heptosyl transferase IV; probably hexose transferase resulting in a Lipid A-core. A lipid A-core is then exported into the periplasmic space by a lipopolysaccharide ABC transporter. The lipid A-core is then flipped to the outer surface of the inner membrane by the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter, MsbA. An additional integral membrane protein, YhjD, has recently been implicated in LPS export across the IM. The smallest LPS derivative that supports viability in E. coli is lipid IVA. However, it requires mutations in either MsbA or YhjD, to suppress the normally lethal consequence of an incomplete lipid A . Recent studies with deletion mutants implicate the periplasmic protein LptA, the cytosolic protein LptB, and the IM proteins LptC, LptF, and LptG in the subsequent transport of nascent LPS to the outer membrane (OM), where the LptD/LptE complex flips LPS to the outer surface. PW002059 Metabolic polymyxin resistance UDP-glucuronic acid compound undergoes a NAD dependent reaction through a bifunctional polymyxin resistance protein to produce UDP-Beta-L-threo-pentapyranos-4-ulose. This compound then reacts with L-glutamic acid through a UDP-4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose--oxoglutarate aminotransferase to produce an oxoglutaric acid and UDP-4-amino-4-deoxy-beta-L-arabinopyranose The latter compound interacts with a N10-formyl-tetrahydrofolate through a bifunctional polymyxin resistance protein ArnA, resulting in a tetrahydrofolate, a hydrogen ion and a UDP-4-deoxy-4-formamido-beta-L-arabinopyranose, which in turn reacts with a product of the methylerythritol phosphate and polysoprenoid biosynthesis pathway, di-trans,octa-cis-undecaprenyl phosphate to produce a 4-deoxy-4-formamido-alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl ditrans, octacis-undecaprenyl phosphate. The compound 4-deoxy-4-formamido-alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl ditrans, octacis-undecaprenyl phosphate hypothetically reacts with water and results in the release of a formic acid and 4-amino-4-deoxy-α-L-arabinopyranosyl ditrans,octacis-undecaprenyl phosphate which in turn reacts with a KDO2-lipid A through a 4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose transferase resulting in the release of a di-trans,octa-cis-undecaprenyl phosphate and a L-Ara4N-modified KDO2-Lipid A PW002052 Metabolic Specdb::MsMs 41897 Specdb::MsMs 41898 Specdb::MsMs 41899 Specdb::MsMs 42605 Specdb::MsMs 42606 Specdb::MsMs 42607 Lipid A biosynthesis (KDO)2-(lauroyl)-lipid IVA acyltransferase P24205 MSBB_ECOLI msbB http://ecmdb.ca/proteins/P24205.xml Undecaprenyl phosphate-alpha-4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose arabinosyl transferase P76473 ARNT_ECOLI arnT http://ecmdb.ca/proteins/P76473.xml Lipopolysaccharide heptosyltransferase 1 P24173 RFAC_ECOLI rfaC http://ecmdb.ca/proteins/P24173.xml Lauroyl-KDO2-lipid IV(A) + myristoyl-[acp] > a holo-[acyl-carrier protein] + (KDO)2-lipid A PW_R003037 (KDO)2-lipid A + ADP-L-glycero-beta-D-manno-heptose > Hydrogen ion + Adenosine diphosphate + heptosyl-Kdo2-lipid A + ADP + Heptosyl-KDO2-lipid A PW_R003038 2 4-Amino-4-deoxy-alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl di-trans,octa-cis-undecaprenyl phosphate + (KDO)2-lipid A >2 di-trans,octa-cis-undecaprenyl diphosphate + L-Ara4N-modified KDO2-Lipid A PW_R005995
