Protein Domain : Exopolysaccharide biosynthesis protein ExoP-like IPR005700

Type  Family
Description  This group of proteins are part of a large genetic locus which is associated with exopolysaccharide (EPS) biosynthesis [ , ]. This entry includes ExoP from Rhizobium meliloti and PssP from Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii. They belong to the PCP2a family involved in the synthesis of high-molecular-weight EPS []. They contain a periplasmic domain flanked by two transmembrane regions and an additional cytoplasmic domain. ExoP is involved in polymerization and secretion of succinoglycan. Mutations in the Walker A ATP-binding motif found in the cytoplasmic domain of ExoP prevented ATPase activity of the ExoP protein [].
