Protein Family Models

This entry represents a domain found in a group of bacterial phosphoethanolamine transferases, including eptA from Helicobacter pylori [1] and eptB from Escherichia coli EC:2.7.8.42 [2]. This domain is found immediately N-terminal to the sulphatase domain in many sulphatases. [1]. 15489235. Periplasmic cleavage and modification of the 1-phosphate group of Helicobacter pylori lipid A.
