UniProt Protein Function: | Involved in the assembly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Required for the translocation of LPS from the inner membrane to the outer membrane. May form a bridge between the inner membrane and the outer membrane, via interactions with LptC and LptD, thereby facilitating LPS transfer across the periplasm. |
UniProt Protein Details: | |
NCBI Summary: | LptA depletion results in rifampicin/bile salts sensitivity, indicative of an outer membrane integrity defect. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG12618]. LptA is a periplasmic binding component of the LptABC ABC transporter. [More information is available at EcoCyc: G7665]. |
