ATP-dependent lipid A-core flippase

UniProtKB accession:  P60752

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Involved in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) biosynthesis. Translocates lipid A-core from the inner to the outer leaflet of the inner membrane (PubMed:8809774, PubMed:9575204, PubMed:12119303, PubMed:15304478, PubMed:28869968). Transmembrane domains (TMD) form a pore in the inner membrane and the ATP-binding domain (NBD) is responsible for energy generation (PubMed:12119303). Shows ATPase activity (PubMed:12119303, PubMed:18024585, PubMed:18344567, PubMed:19132955, PubMed:20412049, PubMed:21462989). May transport glycerophospholipids (PubMed:9575204). In proteoliposomes, mediates the ATP-dependent flipping of a variety of phospholipid and glycolipid derivatives (PubMed:20412049). May also function as a multidrug transporter (PubMed:19132955).
