Protein Domain : Chain length determinant protein EpsF IPR017468

Type	Family
Description	Sequences in this family of proteins are members of the chain length determinant family ( ) which includes the wzc protein from Escherichia coli. This family of proteins are homologous to the EpsF protein of the methanolan biosynthesis operon of Methylobacillus sp. 12S [ ]. The distribution of this protein appears to be restricted to a subset of exopolysaccharide operons containing a syntenic grouping of genes including a variant of the EpsH exosortase protein. Exosortase has been proposed to be involved in the targeting and processing of proteins containing the PEP-CTERM domain to the exopolysaccharide layer.
