RC STRAIN=ATCC 9046; RX MEDLINE=99282527; PubMed=10352233; DOI=10.1016/S0378-1119(99)00119-5; RA Vazquez-Ramos A., Moreno S., Guzman J., Alvarado A., Espin G.; RT "Transcriptional organization of the Azotobacter vinelandii algGXLVIFA RT genes: characterization of algF mutants."; RL Gene 232:217-222(1999). CC -!- FUNCTION: Together with algI and algV, forms an inner membrane CC complex which probably interacts with the alginate polymerization- CC transport complex and adds acetyl groups at the O-2 and O-3 CC positions of polymannuronic acid. Acetylation of alginate CC increases cyst resistance to desiccation. CC -!- PATHWAY: Alginate biosynthesis. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Periplasmic (By similarity). CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the algF family. CC -------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC This Swiss-Prot entry is copyright.
