| Other name(s): |
wbaN (gene name); rfbN (gene name) |
| Systematic name: |
dTDP-β-L-rhamnose:α-D-galactosyl-diphospho-ditrans,octacis-undecaprenol 3-α-rhamnosyltransferase (configuration-inverting) |
| Comments: |
The enzyme, characterized from several Salmonella strains, participates in the biosynthesis of the repeat unit of O antigens produced by strains that belong to the A, B, D and E groups. |
